Coaching One-to-One
As a coach, Seitz works with writers to:
- Clarify an objective or intention for the work.
- Determine the best form for the material: Is this a one-woman show, a memoir, a series of short stories, a novel or a nonfiction book, a series of magazine articles, a screenplay?
- Put together a strategy with specific goals and a calendar with dates and deadlines to meet these goals
- Meet by phone or in person on a weekly basis to read/edit the material. Are we still on task?
- Create a marketing strategy as the project nears completion. This could involve targeting agents and publishers, editors; movie studio executives; theatre managers. Or, simply, a list of venues where the student might begin to read poetry/monologues.
