Have you been wanting to write a book and don't know where to start? 

Are you tired of not making progress on your manuscript?

​Do you suffer from “imposter syndrome?”

​Would you like to restore or introduce sensuality and eroticism into your writing?

​Want some support?

​

​What is sanctuary coaching?

Sanctuary coaching focuses on you—the person—and your environment. We will spend time on topics such as:

• preparing your writing/dreaming/work space

• celebrating your successes and your “failures”

• combatting imposter syndrome by gathering your receipts

• bringing all five senses into your writing practice

​​

I have coached

• writers who are formerly incarcerated, jailed, or detained by ICE or other immigration facilities

• writers in recovery from addiction

• writers who love kink, BDSM, polyamory, Black Joy, and/or Black Excellence

• survivors of MFA programs

 

Who am I and why should you come to me for coaching?​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

 

Hi, I am Tijanna O. Eaton (Tə-zha-na; she/her), an over-60, Black queer masculine-of-center leatherdyke with a high school diploma and a rap sheet. I’ve had a lot of different kinds of experiences in life and bring my full background into my coaching practice.  Additionally, I am trained in the Unicorn Authors Sanctuary Coaching Model.  I’ve coached dozens of people about their sanctuary.  I have over 25 years of experience as a mentor and Twelve Step sponsor.  And I’m an excellent pep talker.​​

 

I don’t offer “tough love” coaching but I will meet you where you’re at, and I will use my training and intuition to ask you questions about things you may not have considered before.  Well, maybe just a little tough love.  I will be your Writing Top if that's what you need.
