Grace & Grit Writing
Your story, your journey, your voice
Kim B. Curtis, Book Doctor
Welcome to
Grace & Grit Writing
At Grace & Grit Writing, we believe that every story deserves a voice — let’s find yours. Whether it’s the memoir you’ve been meaning to write, the personal account of triumph or hardship, or the manuscript that’s been sitting on your desk for years, I’m here to help you bring it to life.
​
With over 20 years of experience as a writer, editor, and book coach, I specialize in helping people share their most meaningful stories. It’s not always easy, and sometimes it’s hard to know where to begin, but I’m here to guide you through every step. Many people think they aren’t a “real” writer, or they worry that their story isn’t worth telling. But I’m here to remind you — you have a story worth sharing, and together, we’ll make sure it’s heard.
​
What makes my approach different is that I don’t just offer services — I offer partnership. I’m tough when I need to be, pushing you to explore your story’s depths and embrace vulnerability. But I’m also compassionate, offering the understanding and patience you need when you feel stuck or uncertain. I’ll be there to support you as you work through the hard moments and celebrate your progress along the way.
Here's how I can help you
My Promise to You
I’m not here to write your story for you. I’m here to help you uncover your words, shape your narrative, and share your truth. Working together, we’ll develop a plan that respects your voice, honors your journey, and pushes your story toward its fullest potential.
​
Your words matter. Let’s start telling your story today.
"Working with Kim has been a life-changing experience. As someone who had dreamed of writing a book for years but wasn’t sure where to start, Kim met me where I was. Her coaching style and types of edits met me where my writing was at every session. She not only helped me find my voice but also guided me step-by-step to become a writer.
Her patience, encouragement, and expertise turned my scattered ideas into a cohesive story. She helped me gain confidence in myself as a writer and gave me the tools to bring my vision to life. I went from thinking, “Can I really do this?” to knowing, “I am a writer.” "
