Hi, I'm Anne!
I’m a Story Coach and the founder of The Story Immersion Project where I help writers tell stories readers want to read.
My obsession with storytelling began early—I taught myself to read by memorizing Blueberries For Sal at three years old, and have been immersed in Story ever since!
I’ve guided over 10,000 writers through the novel and memoir writing process in my digital courses, programs, and personal coaching sessions.
I bring Hollywood-level expertise to help writers start, write, and finish novels and memoirs. As a senior development executive, I sifted through thousands of stories to find those with potential and then worked with writers, studio execs, and producers to develop narratives with impact.
My Hollywood Story System that draws on feature film story development methods isn’t just another writing system—it’s a proven, practical, step-by-step approach for crafting novels and memoirs that resonate with readers.
I love working with writers who commit fully to their books, and do the work necessary to finish their manuscripts.
I’m a straight-shooting but compassionate story coach who believes in the power of character-driven, emotionally resonant, structured stories. If you want to write a book that readers can’t put down, you’re in the right place!
Ready to dive deep into your story?
(And if you’re not ready, that’s okay, too! Dive in anyway!)
Let’s get immersed in story!
Welcome to The Story Immersion Project
At the Story Immersion Project, we empower you to start, write, and finish a book you can publish with my Hollywood Story System, effective feedback, accountability, mindset coaching, tools, and support.
I believe anyone (and that means you!) can write a book if you have access to the right tools and support. Whether you’re a seasoned author or you haven’t written a story since 8th-grade Creative Writing class.
I also believe in writing great stories, and selling them so they can be shared with the world. Whether you’re writing literary or genre fiction, memoir, or narrative nonfiction.
How We Can Help You
We offer courses, programs, and 1:1 services to help you start, write, revise, complete, and publish your novel or memoir. (We also work with personal essay and short story writers.)
