Writing Coaches and Classes
Nic Nelson and Wordsmith
We adapt our methods to your unique personality and strengths. We help you understand the "why" behind the "how" of writing. Students, we help you master the martial art of scholarship! Authors, we help you tell your story well, and publish wisely!
Nic Nelson has a bizarre love for the bizarre language of English — its twists and turns, its nooks and crannies, its etymology and linguistic structures, its clarity, vitality, and power. Nic has taught creative and academic writing to children, teens, and adults for many years, focusing mostly on graduate and doctoral students. He has been a dissertation coach since 2004 and has led seminars on academic reading and writing, self-publishing, article-writing, rhetoric, exegetical research, servant leadership, ideational leadership, and maximizing human capacity.
