I’m Sarah, a writing coach and author. I help you if you have a book you want to write but keep finding yourself stuck.
Together, we look closely at your ideas and your writing to discover what your book needs, and what’s getting in your way.
Drawing on nature, curiosity and the craft of writing, I help you find a clear next step and keep going towards a finished book.
Three private coaching sessions to understand your book and know what to write next.
Have you got too many ideas? Do you keep starting over again? Have you reached the point where the writing has stopped making sense?
Bring your ideas, your questions and whatever you've written. I'll help you notice the connections, gaps and possibilities that are difficult to see when you're working along.
Together, we’ll SEE what your book is trying to say, SHIFT what's getting in the way, and GO forward with a clearer direction and practical next steps.

“Sarah is unique—hugely perceptive, knowledgeable, intuitive and kind. She brings the best out of each writer according to their needs.”
“I remember at the start of our first Zoom call I felt like my book might never get finished, and by the end of it I was lighter and more confident, knowing that with the support of Sarah I could get it done. And I did!”
“Your guidance, wisdom and support has transformed my writing journey in ways I didn’t think possible. Your coaching has allowed me to believe in my voice and trust my creativity.”
I know what it’s like to want to write and find that you can’t.
I’m Sarah Clayton, author of The Wrong Daughter and The Write Wild Method. There have been times when writing poured out of me, and two years when illness left me unable to write.
My way back began on Skye, sitting among seaweed. Nature helped me become curious again. Within six months, I’d written a novel.
That experience became the foundation of Write Wild. Today, I bring together nature, close attention to your words and practical help with the craft of writing. We explore what’s stopping you, discover what your writing already knows, and work out how to develop it into a book.
I believe the books we struggle to write are often trying to teach us something about how we want to live. Helping you explore that—and get your book written—is why I do this work.
What if better writing doesn't begin at your desk?
The Write Wild Method is my published guide to reconnecting with your creativity through nature, curiosity and a wilder approach to writing.
It's for writers who want to go deeper — beyond rules, routines and word counts — and rediscover the exploration, meaning and aliveness that made them want to write in the first place.
Reimagine. Refresh. Reboot your writing.
