• "Meredith is a solid soul who has been steadfast in guiding my writing process. Their follow-through is astounding, their lighthearted tone is reassuring, and their editing skills are a soothing balm for someone like me who is starting to focus on my writing career. I am so grateful for the last six months of working together. I have a lot of material to put forth into the world, thanks to Word Up writing coaching."

    Terese Elhard, The Mild Wild

  • "Before I worked with Meredith, I spent months and months struggling to write anything besides paragraphs about how frustrated I was that I couldn’t seem to write about the things I wanted to write about. When I finally signed up for Becoming, I thought what I needed help with was becoming more consistent with a routine, just doing more of it, and that Meredith would be my taskmaster to help me do that. While I did need help with those things, they did it in such a way that felt joyful and helped me remember that I GET to write. I also got so much more: writing prompts tailored to me, encouragement, and help finding my voice, and learning a writing process that is unique to me. They also laughed and cried with me as I discovered so much of myself that I want to write about. The whole experience was invaluable to me as a writer. I have written several pieces that I am so proud of, as a result of working with Meredith, up from zero before working with them. I recommend working with them for anyone who wants to write about anything!"

  • "I have been working with Meredith of Word Up for over four years. They are absolutely magical with words and taking the raw, rough drafts I give them to create something that so aligns with the messages from my heart. They have a way of listening, questioning to dig a little deeper, and knitting it all together. They make the process seem painless and smooth. They have been able to give my company a voice my clients respond to and connect with. What an absolute gem."

  • "Meredith is a master wordsmith with an eye for the most important details. I was able to work with them to upgrade my website and make it more professional. They intentionally explored not only the way my website looked grammatically, but they also helped me build better awareness about how my blogs and storytelling could speak more fully to my audience. They are unabashedly kind, playful in conversation, and wicked smart in how they get down to editing. Working with words is now fun and engaging, and I have Mer to thank for that!"

  • "Meredith is a HUGE help with all things words/writing/storytelling, and everything in between. Many of the projects I'm doing require written communication. Having someone I can call for coaching is a game-changer. Every type of writer, regardless of the size of their project, could benefit from working with Meredith through Word Up Coaching. Bring your writing visions and concerns to Meredith, and you will be pleased with the results! Word Up Coaching is located in Bend, Oregon, but I'm glad that remote sessions are an option for me, out of state."

  • Meredith has really helped me with my writing journey! They are extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the field of writing, from little details of my work to how I’m feeling while creating it. They have really inspired me to get more in tune with my mental state and have fun while writing! I’d recommend Meredith to anyone who is starting out their writing journey.

  • "Meredith has helped me on my journey of creating two books that I've been wanting to write. Having a coach helped me get ideas out on paper and make it all flow properly. I feel that without Meredith's help, I would still be working to complete these projects."
