Work with Shereen
Welcome. I help writers finish the book only they can write. After ten years as a published author with multiple translations, and as the winning 2026 juror for the Neustadt International Prize for Literature, I've learned that most unfinished novels aren't short on talent. They're short on a method. There are three ways to work with me.
The Storyteller's Blueprint- Online Course
A method for finishing the novel you want to write.
Over eight modules, you move from why you're writing this book, through craft, audience, setting, character building, editing and how to approach publication. This is your how-to guide to a complete, readable draft. Ethical questions are built into every stage, so the story you tell is ready for the world.
One graduate, stuck on her novel for years, completed her first readable draft in just over six months.

One-to-One Coaching
Private, focused work on your manuscript, from first draft through to a version you're ready to submit.
I work as a writing coach and mentor to help overcome writing blocks, anxiety and prepare you to enter the industry confidently.
Many of the writers I coach prefer to remain anonymous, so confidentiality is part of how I work: your manuscript, your progress and your name stay with me.

Workshops & Events
I conduct live sessions for festivals, universities, literary organisations & more. I deliver sessions on novel-writing, writing for publication, cultural writing from lived experience, ethical storytelling & book events.
I've led workshops and spoken at corporate institutions, cultural programmes, literary festivals, and for TV & film.
