Hi, I'm Ellie

A Pacific Northwest native who spends ample time writing and testing a multitude of pastry and other recipes in my home kitchen or at one of the many famed coffeehouses nearby. When I'm not coated in flour or hard at work on the next book in one of my cozy mystery series, you’ll find me outside exploring hiking trails, trying to burn off calories consumed in the name of research.

“This masterclass and this group is EVERYTHING! Thank you so much! I can't even articulate how much it all helped. I could not have done it without you!"

Paula S.

What my course students are saying 

"Great course! I have been struggling to write a murder mystery for a long time. This course walks you through each step so I now know how to proceed to complete my mystery along with guidance to turn a first draft into an edited manuscript. I highly recommend this course to anyone that has dreams of writing a mystery novel.”

Kathleen C. 

What my course students are saying 

"Ellie’s Masterclass is teaching me at my pace since we all have different schedules, motivational, and just what I needed to become an aspiring writer."

Sabina O. 

What my course students are saying 

"As a result of taking this course, I feel like the cozy mystery idea that I had been thinking about but didn't know where to start has a definitive goal and purpose now. By following her steps, participants are well on their way to completing a book. Thank you Ellie!”

Ginette C.

What my course students are saying 

"The lessons, worksheets, resources, 'Live' sessions, have helped tremendously. I know my characters so much better. I use a calendar and timeline for pacing and moving the plot forward. I have a notebook for chapter fixes and follow-ups. Recently, I've started the first edit of my draft with my critique group."

What my course students are saying 

"I am so amazed how, after completing each of Ellie's lessons, how easily the words flow each day when I sit down to write. Knowing my characters more in-depth and having arcs for each of them has been a huge help."
