About Jamie Morris

I never expected to be a writing coach, a book coach, an advocate for others’ creativity—but here I am. And here you are, too!

The heart of a book coach’s writing world

VoiceHeartVision.com is the space I’ve shaped as the home for my writing life. It’s where I’ve gathered what I’ve learned as a writing coach and book coach. Now, it’s where I share what I hope will support and inspire others walking their own paths.

For over two decades, I’ve offered workshops, book and writing coaching, and carefully curated resources. During those years, I had the privilege of helping writers find their voice, shape their stories, and bring their visions to life. Every one of those collaborations has shaped me in return.

In my twenty years as a writing professional, I directed Woodstream Writers and mentored writing consultants at Rollins College. I also Cover of Plotting Your Novel with The Plot Clock, by writing coach and book coach Jamie Morristaught creative writing at Seminole Community College and co-led the Next Level writing intensives. In addition, I’ve co-authored two books on writing: Plotting Your Novel with the Plot Clock and Jamie Helps Mel Write a Novel—among many other fulfilling literary adventures! These experiences are all woven into the information you’ll find on these pages.

Currently, I have limited, select consultations available for writers who might need a spot of clarity, a quick boost, or just a helpful guide to point the way. If you’re interested in learning more, use the handy-dandy form on the Let’s Connect page.
