Written Response & Reflection – 1,000 Words for £50 (including an introductory virtual mentoring session)


How It Works

If you've never shared your writing before — or you feel nervous even calling yourself "a writer" — this is for you.

Send me around 1,000 words of your own writing (any genre), and I will reply with an easy-to-understand written response that is honest, gentle, and deeply attentive. My aim is to help you feel safe to keep going, while also showing you what's strong, what's emerging, and where you might go next. During our mentoring session, I will highlight any incongruencies and give you time to explore. Please note this is not therapy or counselling.)

Price: £50 (fixed)
Turnaround: within 3 days, appointment booked at a following mutual date.
How to book: Email your writing (and any questions you would like me to answer) to paulaanne@busycornerbooks.com.


My response will include:

  • A warm reflection of what I sense you're reaching for

  • Notes on language, clarity, tone, and the way your sentences connect and carry meaning

  • Thought-provoking, sometime gently challenging, questions to open fresh possibilities

  • A few clear next steps you can try (without overwhelm). Follow-up appointments are available, never presssured.(*fees may be negotiable*)

This is especially helpful if you:

  • feel frightened of writing, or worry you'll "get it wrong"

  • love writing, but have never shown your work to anyone

  • want a human response that goes deeper than "I liked it" — without being harsh

Please note: This service is not counselling or therapy. It is a written reflection service that many people experience as thought provoking, supportive and confidence-building. **Anything you share is treated in strict confidence, and in line with our ethics and privacy statements.**

Email your 1,000 words to→ paulaanne@busycornerbooks.com and I will send you the payment instructions, your receipt and my response. (Then we can agree on our follow-up chat or teams meeting - whatever is easier for you.) 

Looking forward to hearing from you soon!

All the very best, Paula Anne.
