Meet Amy — journalist, editor, book writing coach and pod-writer. Founder of LightWriter Media and creator of Give the Girl a Column, she empowers women to share their stories with lightness, confidence and bad-arse boundaries.
I help writers — first-timers, overthinkers, trauma-navigators, idea-collectors — turn real, raw experience into a book they’re proud of… without losing themselves in the process.
Whether you're writing a memoir, non-fiction guide or a book based on your lived experiences, the LightWriter mentoring package offers everything you need — emotionally and practically — to get it done. And you can mix-n-match our services to suit your wants, and budget.
Don't love the vibe? We'll refund your last session, no questions asked. 🌈
"Amy's writing and editing genius, and holistic book coaching were like having a secret weapon onboard. Every time I wanted to scream, 'Stop the ride', Amy kept me on track, through writing and editing the book, to publishing it and beyond."

“Amy demystified the world of publishing, so I had a strategy that worked. And I knew exactly what I was seeking in a publisher-author relationship. I have no hesitation that without her experienced guidance and support, my first published book may still be a notion rather than hitting the shelves.”
🌟 This Is For You If…
✨ You’ve been carrying a story for years — and you’re finally ready to get it onto the page with clarity, courage and support.
✨ You want to write your book without the grind — no overwhelm, no emotional burnout, no staring at the blinking cursor.
✨ You’re craving a process that feels uplifting, grounded and joyful — even if your story holds big feelings or complicated chapters.
✨ You want someone who gets both humans and publishing — the emotional stuff and the industry strategy.
✨ You’re tired of trying to do it alone — and you want a mentor who feels like equal parts coach, editor, guide and safe space.
✨ You love the idea of holistic support — book coaching with a side of energy healing, meditation and nervous-system-friendly guidance.
✨ You’re done with “maybe one day” energy — you want structure, momentum and a clear 8-week path to book-deal-ready.
✨ You’re a parent, creative, overthinker, multi-hyphenate or ADHD girlie — and you need a writing rhythm that works for your brain and life.
✨ You want your writing journey to feel transformative — not just productive.
"Amy took my spark of an idea and helped me flesh it out into a fully formed, book deal winning pitch. For the confidence and clarity she gave me, I’m forever grateful."
Publishers We Work With
From the start, I felt incredibly safe in Amy's hands. Her support, guidance and wisdom took my writing from a mere idea to a book that I am truly proud of. She nurtured and developed the writer within me, gave me permission to feel and be authentic, and was there every step of the way—from writing to publication.

'Amy is a unique combination of talented editor, savvy writer and generous soul. This mix ensures that your story gets told in a way that feels engaging, snappy, humorous, raw and vulnerable all at once. Writing a book can be a lonely experience. With Amy as your editor, you won’t feel alone. She really cares about you and your story—this is evident every step of the way.'
Fleur Chambers,
Author of Ten Pathways and Wholehearted Confidence
"Amy is a world-class editor who has a gift for editing with ruthless compassion! As a sharp editor, she not only helped to improve my writing, but her kindness and generosity always left me feeling cared for, encouraged, and motivated. Brilliant at what she does, but even better for who she is, writing and producing my children’s picture book series with Amy’s mentorship was a dream."
Jaleesa Paine
Author of The Money Lessons Series
"I loved working with Amy. My publishing deal wouldn't have been possible without her support, guidance and belief in my story — a very tough story to tell. Since then, I've worked with Amy on my second book, a collaboration coming out this year. I recommend her to everyone."
