Len Leatherwood, M.S.

Writing Coach

Writing Rules!

Private youth and adult writing Teacher

I specialize in short stories, poetry, personal essays, memoir, and college essays. With my guidance, many of my students have won writing contests and/or published their pieces in literary journals, anthologies, magazines, or e-zines.

Many of my high school and college students

have been admitted to their first choice undergraduate and graduate schools due in

large part to their superlative personal statements and college essays.

Sessions are conducted either in person in

Los Angeles or on the phone/Internet.

"There is no one I trust more with my essays, Len turns average writing into extraordinary works of art. The 1,500 mile gap between us

had no effect on how efficiently we were able to prepare my college application essays. I couldn't be more pleased with them and I'm excited to see what doors they have opened for me. She is truly fantastic."

I am a great admirer of a newsletter by Maria Popova called Brain Pickings at brainpickings.com. Maria has been writing this newsletter for the past 13 years where she researches and compiles diverse writings from well-known authors, poets, philosophers, and scientists related to all sorts of topics. This video came from her newsletter, where she has added many readings related to depression. I hope you”ll watch the video and look at Maria’s newsletter. I have found it to contain some of the most inspiring words I’ve ever read in one place on the Internet.
