About Lindsey

Lindsey, the daughter of a gypsy queen and a gynecologist, is engaged to a superhero. Her childhood was filled with rainbows and cotton candy, and she believes that if all children had parents like hers then world peace would be right around the corner.

Once, Lindsey moved to Paris to drink wine and eat cheese. Another time she studied at Oxford University’s Lady Margaret Hall and wore jeans to meet the queen mum (No, not really. Lindsey never meet the queen mum but it’s strangely possible.) In the near future, Lindsey will sit atop an elephant in the mountains of thailand and bask in the glory of the Kremlin. Travel is a must!

Lindsey laughs heartily and sometimes giggles too. Advocating gross consumption of popular and not so popular culture, Lindsey rents five movies or buys three books at a time because she wants to watch or read them all and just can’t pick one. Adventure thrills. Lindsey prides herself on her intelligence. She can beat you at scrabble, and makes really good oatmeal cookies. But enough about that…

Lindsey has been working as a writing coach for 10 years. She has been known to help clients conquer personal writing goals, such the development of a daily writing practice or completion a first novel, but more often she works on smaller more focused projects, everything college and graduate school admissions essays or letters of intent to wedding vows and best man speeches.

Emotional projects, such as those mentioned above, which hinge on grandiose expressions of love or could quite possibly make or break the writer’s future, are most often the hardest for the novice writer to complete. As a writing coach, Lindsey specializes in this type “personal” writing. Through one-on-one conversations, Lindsey helps the writer establish the focus of his or her topic and structure the writing so that it is easy to follow and well received by readers or listeners.
