Your story matters. Let’s make sure it gets told.
Hi, I’m Katie Bannon. Thank you so much for being here.
I’m a writer, editor, and coach. I help people like you turn vulnerable, real-life experiences into powerful, publishable books and essays.
For the past decade, I’ve helped more than a thousand writers tell their truest stories — while sharing my own. I believe the stories we’re afraid to tell are often the ones we—and our readers—need most. Through intimate group classes and 1:1 coaching, I’ll guide you step by step as you find your voice, shape your story, and share it with the world.
MAKE IT STAND OUT
You already have this story inside you. What you need is a guide to help shape it on the page.
For the past 10 years, I’ve helped writers of all walks of life write and revise their truest stories. Many have gone on to win awards and publish books and essays. But that doesn’t happen overnight. Writing involves shaping our stories through craft techniques, finding a strong structure, creating evocative scenes, developing a compelling voice, and much more.
“Katie Bannon is a rare find. She’s a writer who’s exceptionally skilled in both teaching methodology and editing/coaching. She consistently demonstrates expertise and personal warmth while guiding others in writing and rewriting stories that are difficult to put on the page.”
