Teaching and Coaching Services
I offer a limited number of coaching slots each season. Inquire at annajrollins@gmail.com to reserve your spot.
I work with writers who want thoughtful feedback about clarity, structure, voice, and publication strategy. My approach is direct, encouraging, and revision-focused.
With almost fifteen years of university teaching experience, a decade directing a writing center, and extensive academic publications in the field of composition and rhetoric — along with my own work as a traditionally published author with almost 100 bylines in national outlets — I bring both editorial rigor and real-world publishing insight to our work together.

Book Strategy & Platform Session
60-minute Strategy Session — $175
I work with writers at every stage of the book process — from early concept to proposal development, from querying to navigating a book deal, from pre-publication planning to launch and beyond.
These sessions are tailored to where you are. We might focus on:
Clarifying the core argument or narrative arc of your book idea
Strengthening a proposal or query strategy
Thinking through platform development
Preparing for publication and publicity
Aligning your writing life with your real life
This is a focused conversation designed to provide clarity and strategy wherever you are in your publication journey.
