Statistics say 97% of people that start a book... NEVER FINISH!

As a writing coach, I can assist you with brainstorming, drafting, revisions, and editing. My goal is to not only help you get your project done, but to ultimately teach you more about the craft of writing, helping you elevate your writing to the next level.

 

I've had a client reach the Best-Seller list on Amazon, and another receive awards for their work. Your idea might just be the next best book!

​

Let's beat the statistics! Work with me, and I can guarantee you'll publish something you're confident in that's worth sharing!

Meet Your Writing Coach

Hey There! 👋

My name is Michael Jaymes, and I am a published author and self-employed writing coach. I started MJV Writings in 2019 and have had the opportunity to serve people all around the world. 

I initially only offered ghostwriting, writing dozens of stories for different clients. I soon discovered that it wasn't the writing that filled me with joy but helping other writers bring their stories to life.

I spent the next multiple years studying story science, the art of engagement through writing, and the different styles and structures used to convey a message or story.

I began offering new services, starting with outlining, then alpha reading, and now more recently, editing and consulting.

Throughout my career, projects I've worked on fall under categories such as memoirs, self-help books, fiction books, screenplays, documentaries, essays, and everything in between. The types of clients I've served range from students working on college applications to in-the-field journalists, from newbie fiction writers to large publishing companies.

In my time as a writing coach, I've delivered over 700 orders,

had a client's book reach the best-seller list on Amazon, and another receive 8 awards for their book. 

While I persue my personal endeavors as an author on the side, my main focus is on my clients and their projects, helping them get their message and story out to the world.

If you'd like to know more about what I provide, or have any questions, reach out below! I look forward to discussing your project and how I can best serve you!

Pricing

Pricing is dependant on the type of writing help each client needs. My prices are competitive and affordable to a wide range of audiences, including young and aspiring authors.

Contact me today for more information.

Turnaround

I pride myself on how quickly I turnaround work for my clients. I've had clients reach out with tight deadlines, and I do my best to meet that need!

​

In most cases, I can finish a project within the same month, sometimes even within the same week of the initial request (depending on my workload of that week, the season of business, and the size of the project). Everything is first come first serve, so contact me today to find out when my next availability is. 

Philosophy

While writing is an art, variable in style, it is also a craft, instructable in theory.

​

My goal as a writing coach is to help you better understand the craft of writing. I cannot teach you how to encapsulate a voice or style that is true to you. That is something you will learn through the process of continual writing and discovering oneself through the artform.

​

What I can teach you is how to elevate that voice and style with writing processes and structural fundamentals that have been used since the beginning of time.

​

As Solomon wisely said,

That which has been is what will be,

That which is done is what will be done,

And there is nothing new under the sun.

 

Whether it be looking at a story, a chapter, a scene, a paragraph, or even the phrases and words, my goal is to ultimately teach writers the importance in it all, how one can be engaging in every aspect, and how one can ultimately take their writing to a new level.
