Lock in yours NOW!

Do you need a writing coach to help you through a scene? A chapter? Or to start learning how to self-edit better? Are a pantster wanting to be a plotter--or the other way around? Perhaps it's preplanning tasks, like brainstorming, researching, and similar? Or is writer's block making you feel as emotionally stuck and drained as your characters?

​

Here's your chance to work with Jenna O'Malley, your Soul Writer, as your one-on-one writing coach! For an hourly rate, I am at your disposal to work on a project of your picking through a shared screen in Google Meet. What makes me qualified to help you on your bardic journey?

 

For my traditional training and education, I graduated from Frostburg State University with a bachelor's in English (transatlantic literature and linguistics) and theater (stage management/directing) (2011, high honors), and I gained my master's degree in education (secondary and special education) from there a year later (highest honors). I’ve been teaching English/Language Arts, English for Second/Language Learners, creative writing, Advanced Placement (AP) English Literature and Composition, college-level courses, workshops, and more since 2012 with certifications and/or full-time contractual experiences in five states across the US (Maryland, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Maine) and internationally (Japan, China, Brazil, and France).

​

Furthermore, I’ve been a certified writing tutor through the College Language and Reading Association (CRLA) since 2009. During my time as a student at Frostburg State University, I worked as one of their writing tutors. My schedule was often booked because my sessions dove deep and thoroughly explored anything the project needed from a writing perspective. I was not limited to working with English students, either. Most of my tutees had the following majors with classes to match: statistics, psychology, sociology, history, criminal justice, mass communications and media, biology, chemistry, physics, pre-med, nursing, pre-law, business administration, medical and electrical engineering, and more. Therefore, it goes without saying that these experiences combined with my days teaching all the types of writing as an ELA teacher... I can help you with any type of writing. Oh, a list? Here's one, but the examples are much more vast:

​

novels, screenplays, poetry

journal articles, text-based analysis, documentation formats (APA, MLA, Chicago)

resume/curriculum vitae and cover letters

anything from any of the classes I listed above that you think might be connected to those content focuses (ask me!)

​

Once I started teaching, I became certified to work with readers and writers of all ages who have dyslexia and dysgraphia through Orton-Gillingham's methods. That's right: this program's techniques have prepared me to work with people from the age 9 to 99 and up). I've also been the teacher of record who ran the creative writing program at every school where I've taught. Additionally, I continue to work with writers of all ages, including teenagers and older persons who have experienced traumatic brain injuries, strokes, and other life-altering health events--something that started during my days as a writing tutor since most non-traditional college students (adults over the age of 25ish) preferred to work with methodical me.

​

As a person with mental health disabilities myself, I guide others through decluttering their writing processes and writing lives. Therefore... to me...

​

Sharing a love of writing is my passion, and opening people to this endless mode of expression is one of my largest, lifelong goals. Therefore, I am here to be your kind voice when you're hard on yourself. (I will give you soul-care homework, if needed!) I'm also your go-to person for learning that writing, first and foremost, is a mode of personal expression and can therefore be fun, healing, and an adventure worth taking for YOU as much as it is for your preferred audience/fan.

 

I hope to hear from you soon, and I cannot wait to travel with you on your creative quest!
