SPECIALIST CONSULTANCY FOR WRITERS & ARTISTS

Stemming from our earliest apprehension of beauty, which occurs in a relational context, the myriad forms in which artistic and literary creativity and expression emerge are vital cultural products which can hugely enrich life. Creative processes however can become elusive, fraught, stymied, or blocked. Such impediments are a common part of creative lives. Some blocks are brief and soon resolve into new work and new discoveries. Others can feel intractable, leaving us stuck and facing deep questions. For writers and artists, specialist consultancy can help to both resolve these types of impediments and further liberate the creative impulse.

While a single consultation may be all that is wanted or needed in exceptional cases, most writers and artists find greater benefit from a series of sessions in which creative urges can be safely explored and inhibitions unpicked and worked-through. Meetings can take place both online and in-person, depending on the nature of the issues, on geography and availability, on your preferences, and other considerations.

Drawing on a rich tapestry of experience in the humanities, social sciences, education, and life (see the ‘About’ and ‘CV' tabs for more formal details), Roger Willoughby offers personalised confidential consultancy to writers of all sorts, to creative artists, and to related arts, literary, and academic groups or organisations who are grappling with creative issues including blocks and other matters. To arrange an initial exploratory discussion of your needs, please send brief details of the issues as you see them, together with your preferred contact details, to me through the contact page.
