Even the most experienced writers get stuck. Often it’s a question of finding the flat spots, pinpointing the emotional untruthfulness, unravelling the story you are really trying to tell.
I can help you say what you want to say and free up the writer inside you. You’ll find our brainstorming sessions remarkably easy, joy-making, freeing, and productive.
We can work together on new ideas, stale ideas, finished or half-completed works. If you’re looking to publish independently, I can guide you through the minefield and save you a lot of cash.
If you have a creative project that seems frozen or stuck, an hour’s easy, warm, insightful discussion will have you surprising yourself with your own energy.

“Oel as usual, your comments are thought-provoking to say the least. This is why you are my go-to person in these matters. Many thanks for your wisdom. You have the eye and the instinct.”
Robin Archbold, slam poetry champion & performance poetry mentor
“Cathoel combines a fierce eagle eye for the wayward or misplaced detail with an amazing capacity to see your work in its entirety, and to suggest novel ways in which your ‘big picture’ might be gently pushed forward.”
Melissa Lucashenko, award-winning author of Mullumbimby, Steam Pigs, and Hard Yards
“Cathoel has mentored me, influenced me and simply entertained me more than any other writer I have come in contact with. Her editing skills are superb. She strives to bring each poem to a level of transcendence, and is never at a loss for suggestions on how to do so.”
Heather Taylor-Johnson, poetry editor of Wet Ink & creative writing lecturer at Flinders University
“Cathoel offers expert and insightful commentary on written texts, providing powerfully engaged and sensitive observations and giving thorough editorial feedback, both quickly and proficiently.”
Stephen Lawrence, poet, editor, and speechwriter for South Australian Equal Opportunities Commission
“I highly recommend her if you’ve got writer’s block or just need some help it getting it together. As a writing coach, Cathoel offers fantastic activities and questions that not only spurred on my writing process but helped me change my relationship to my writing. I now know it more intimately, more about why I am putting bits of my life together as a story to share with the world.”
Tathra Street, leadership consultant
