Working with Susanne had a massive impact on writing ability and how to architect and organize content, so it is mentally digestive. Her coaching dramatically improved my writing skills to be a published author. I don’t often give 10 out of 10, but I can honestly say that on this…
Her expertise, generosity and involvement - together with her openness to costumize her services - makes her the perfect person to collaborate with.
She’s the first coach I’ve ever worked with who understands my brain, and with a mix of practical tools and compassion, she has totally changed how I show up for myself and my career.
I am learning to organize my thoughts and creative processes/projects in a way that enhances my productivity while still maintaining the joy of creating. When I'm not able to give myself permission to rest or change gears, Susanne is there to remind me why it's important. As a result, I am legitimately happier with how I'm existing as a creative professional.
Over and above being extremely good at her craft, she is patient, funny, and kind, not to mention a fountain of inspiration and encouragement. As you would expect from a great editor, if something isn’t working she will tell you why and give guidance on how to fix it, but not in a way that leaves you thinking you should never have left the day job.
Susanne Schotanus will gently lift the needle off that broken record and softly place it in a direction that allows you the freedom to explore your creative writing and watch it grow with a newfound clarity and perspective guided by the warm presence of this writing coach's nurturing maternal light.
Over just a few sessions, Susanne's coaching has already brought my writing to another level of output and, above all, enjoyment.
Besides helping me prioritize my to-do's and do the written work, our sessions help me clear out my doubts, refine my thoughts and reframe my research questions and academic interests. I feel much more confident and on track now!
Her work is of the highest standard and, very importantly, she always managed to deliver on time! I have no hesitation in recommending Susanne and would definitely hire her services again!
I am really happy with the editing / coaching of Susanne regarding my book proposal. She really advised me on all aspects of the proposal and helped me to improve my proposal a lot.
My name is Susanne and ever since I taught myself to read at age 4 I have had a passion for the written word. Over the last five years, I have developed a set of systems to help myself and others be productive and make work of our writing passion. Whether it’s fiction or non-fiction, I’m here to help!
