I offer private manuscript development, editing, coaching, group workshops and accountability/encouragement to writers of all backgrounds and levels of experience. My writing platform is Swift Ink Stories, a space for supportive and constructive creative expression (online and in person).
"Working with Lara Tupper for private manuscript guidance on my novel felt like a dream-come-true. Not only was it a joy to connect with her, but she was able to home in on exactly what my manuscript needed. Even though I have experience as an editor, showing someone else my work for the first time is extremely difficult for me. My sensitive-artist soul appreciated Lara's perfect blend of compassionate encouragement and insightful, critical feedback.Now, after completing the rewrite, I can see how she helped tighten the manuscript to bring out the best it could be. I highly recommend Lara Tupper's manuscript guidance service and look forward to using it again on my next book."
