Before you invest in a higher ticket service with me like a membership, incubator, or 1:1 coaching, I recommend you start with some of my free and lower cost offers to make sure that my coaching and teaching styles resonate with you.
My clients love to work with me because I get the way their brain works, which is why there are a ton of ways to try my coaching out before you invest in the big stuff.

Working Title Writing Incubator
This incubator is my most in-depth community for neurodivergent writers. Twelve months of personalized coaching.
Which of four archetypes most represents your creative style (and your most common creative blocks): Are you a Wallflower, Archaeologist, Researcher, or Sculptor?
This Creative can get inspiration at a moment’s notice when they stumble upon one key part of the project and discover the rest as they go!
Keeps a running list of loose ends and details to fill in later
Does not care about the directions that come with flat pack furniture
Starts to feel anxious when the whimsy doesn’t start to look like a finished product
Ease with: Following the fun
Set free by: Permission to not outline and just figure it out
The Researcher archetype wants to have a solid plan in place before they take creative action.
Structure = yes please
Has 43 tabs open and a waiting list at the library
Can’t finish writing this story until they look up the minimum wage in 1991
Has tried every organizational tool
Ease with: Factual, accurate work
Set free by: Permission to have fun now and refine for mastery later
This Creative likes to learn a lot and bend the rules to create new, unique works of art.
Aware of “the rules” but bends them to fulfill a vision
Has a plan but lets it wander
Works with loose parts that come together at the end as if by magic
Ease with: Letting things be unfinished for now
Set free by: Permission to not always have to invent a totally new thing
This Creative is most at home in their comfort zone: the genres, mediums, and skills they already know.
Loves tropes and cliches because they’re safe
Wants to branch out, but overwhelmed
Seeking confidence, but scared of mistakes
Ease with: Finding inspiration and reference material in their favorite things
Set free by: Permission to go off-book and try something new!
I've been writing since I was four, making a local newspaper with notebook paper and a blue crayon. I'm better at it these days. In 2019, my first book was published - The Gaslighting of the Millennial Generation is a nonfiction book that I wrote to reassure millennials that we aren't lazy and entitled for thinking things could be different and better... the world was specifically designed to reward one type of power and does not care that you believe in yourself.
As a coach, it's my job to center your belief in yourself at the forefront. Even in a world designed to chew us up and spit us out.
I work with neurodivergent, chronically ill, and queer writers - not necessarily all three, but you do get bonus points for checking all the boxes. (There are no points).
"Incubator" as in a safe place where you'll get everything you need to thrive as you write your book from the first draft to revision and querying. Our group is neurodiverse, brilliant, and genuinely delightful to spend time with.
If you're ready for me to tell you everything about it and hear from the other members, click that TELL ME MORE button.
I've gone from doubting that my writing has value and considering giving up on a project that I've worked on for years, to finishing up a manuscript and querying agents.
I have the confidence that I'm good at this, in a way that I wasn't before.
I am so grateful I joined this Incubator, because it opened up a part of me that was dead for so long. I feel excited again with this new, healthy, creative outlet.
I know I am on the right path - it's what I was meant to do.
I had trauma related to my writing from being teased, and I had put that away for many years. If I hadn't participated in Caitlin's groups I don't think I would be where I am today.
By finding the ability to use my creative outlet, I was able to start participating in my life.
I'm a founding member of Writers Against Gen-AI and I do not work 1:1 with creatives who use ChatGPT, Midjourney, or any other generative AI to produce their work.
I absolutely killed it in my high school and college writing courses, but I do not have a degree in English, Literature, or Creative Writing. I'm out here coaching writers based on my human experience as an autistic author.
We can work through most things, but my community spaces have a zero tolerance policy for white nonsense, isms and phobias, and exploitive behavior.
Hiring a writing coach is no joke - it's an important decision, and one I want you to make for yourself with clarity and confidence. Booking a one-time session with me is the next best thing to a trial period on my deeper 1:1 work.
Your session may include witchcraft and hypnosis. We cannot guarantee that your mind will not be blown by the things you can unlock in your brain within these coaching sessions.
Like if an oracle reading and a life coaching session had a baby, and therapy was the godparent.
This is a 90-minute session where we can focus on one particular goal or obstacle in your writing journey. It's extremely helpful to start with one key question - it'll inevitably lead us to more juicy gossip in your subconscious.
Outline your novel or memoir so you can get started on your first draft.
Work through imposter syndrome, worries about what your mother will think of your book, or that thing your third grade teacher said that made you feel shame about your poetry.
Get confidence to get back to your series after a bad first launch or negative feedback.
You'll end the session with a clear vision of how to get free of whatever has been stuck to the bottom of your spiritual shoe.
Sliding scale pricing & payment plans available.
Book an afternoon with me and let's parallel play.

Client Testimonial: Libby Edwardson, Author + Artist
I booked a hyperfocus playdate with Caitlin after multiple failed attempts to create my own author website, and I went from having no website to one I am stupid excited about!
It felt like Caitlin was inside my head. Every idea they suggested—mood boards, character profiles, book quotes—was exactly what I wanted. Caitlin made a work chore feel like a fun hangout and now I have a website that I’m proud to show off.
