The Creative Pit Crew
Introducing Nikki Vallance
A Bit About Me
There are moments in the writing process when the words feel clunky and the pages feel flat. You circle an idea, return to the same scene for the umpteenth time, the cursor blinking at you, marking time like an impatient teacher waiting for an answer. The urge to write is there, but something feels tangled or just out of reach. I know that place well.
I’ve been through every part of the writing process myself: publishing my first novel, working on the next one, and exploring the art and science of creative living through creative conversations on The Creative Switch and through The Bold Types, where I write about what I’m learning as I go. I understand the phases where confidence dips, where the work feels messy, and where you can’t quite see what’s getting in the way.
When we work together, we pay attention to what’s happening underneath those moments — the looping, the procrastination, the over‑editing.
We look for the times when the writing feels good, to understand what works for you: in your craft, your method, your mindset. From there, we build a personal toolkit with everything you need to be a confident writer for this first book and beyond.
When you recognise your own way of writing and understand what supports it, you will finish your book. Better still, you will feel you’ve earned the right to call yourself a writer.
Sometimes you reach a point where you know you can’t keep circling on your own. Here’s what you can do next.
