Two sessions with a working writer that turn "nothing has ever happened to me" into a story map with real options — before a single draft is due.
Just two sessions with a working writer can change "my life is boring" and "nothing worthwhile has ever happened to me" into a STORY MAP with different avenues and options.
Every engagement: one dedicated writer start to submit, the no-AI guarantee in the contract, and the student writing every word.
A wide-ranging recorded conversation. No prompts, no pressure — just the questions a journalist would ask… and want to know the answers to.
Your writer reviews the recording and pulls the moments a reader would lean into.
We pressure-test the strongest stories together and pick the angles.
A written document you can keep as a guide.
Prices are flat per engagement — never hourly. Unlimited revision rounds are included; the essay ships when it’s right.
Earlier than you think. Spring of junior year is ideal — the essay season starts calm instead of panicked. Sophomores are welcome too.
In hundreds of interviews, that has never once turned out to be true. Ordinary lives make the best essays; the skill is in the angle, and the angle is what we find.
In full, toward any package, no expiration within the application cycle. This intensive is how most of our full engagements begin.
