Hi, I'm Kim!
I'm the author of Write a Novel in 100 Days, Trafficked, and This Is Not a Love Letter. I teach novel writing to kids, teens, and adults, and I'm the founder of Purcell Publishing, an international writing company that helps writers find their voice, finish their novels, and move toward publication.
Along with Purcell Publishing, I run the Busy Writer Workshop for adults and Story Studio for kids and teens. I believe everyone has a story worth telling and I love helping people tell it.
