My favorite writing coach is a 1958 Cadillac hearse that has been fitted with a six foot long desk where the big box used to sit. That way you can get your legs under it for purchase when it is driven over speed bumps just as your article is reaching its conclusion. But some prefer Winnebagos.

The smaller the better. There may be secret gardens off narrow back roads.

Nothing one-on-one but at the Garden writer's conventions we sometimes have speakers who could be considered writing coaches.

I've always found the check that comes from a magazine to be my best coach.

Is "writing coach" a new age touchy-feely way of saying "editor?"

--Jonathan

The only writing coaches I have encountered were hired by newspapers to teach their reporters how to write.
