Consulting, Coaching &

Copyediting Services

I am now sharing my coaching and consulting work as WILD TONGUES.

WHAT IS WILD TONGUES Writing Coaching & Consulting?

Inspired by the work of authors like Gloria Anzaldua, the queer Chicana writer whose LA FRONTERA called for authentic expression, hybrid tongues and identities, and bringing my 20+ years of teaching, writing and performing, I founded WILD TONGUES Writing Coaching & Consulting to help others find and boldly express their authentic voices.

I'm booking clients for 2023!  First, I'm inviting folks to a FREE 15-minute consultation to discuss you and your creative needs. Next, we’ll make a plan tailored to YOU! Book an appointment on calendly: https://calendly.com/aimeesuzaracoaching/15-minute-free-consultation

I’ve been writing as long as I can remember, since my first “book” in first grade, minored in creative writing and received my M.F.A. in Creative Writing, and have taught poetry-and spoken-word, then all kinds of creative writing workshops since 2001. I’ve toured and performed and taught workshops all around the country and I’m excited and passionate about offering my skills and experience to support you on your writing path!  Invite me to help bring out your writing voice, strengthen your craft, explore topics, and to centralize and prioritize your writing in a number of ways I will tailor to your needs.

 
Aimee Suzara is an incredible teacher, mentor, and performer. Through this class, she shared her knowledge in writing, capturing, describing, and telling stories that moved me to write and perform in ways I had never done before. I highly recommend taking a class with her, regardless of one’s level of training. Aimee worked with me 1-on-1, given my limited experience with writing skills, and allowed the writer in me to emerge.

Aimee Suzara is a jewel. We’ve worked together in a capacity that has expanded my creative muscles while boiling down to the essence driving my stories forward. She offers her knowledge as a gift; she listens and makes the process of attentive reception easy to replicate. I’m immensely grateful to have Aimee on my team.
