    Writing is Life

    Writer, editor, mentor of the written word. Yours, mine, and the life changing elixir the writing act and written story becomes.

     

     

     

     

     

  • my books, my values

    My writing has led me to live beyond limits, taking me to every continent, both in person and through publication. Writing is my vitality. An author of novels, poetry, creative non-fiction and short stories, my central themes concern the powerful presence of the silent majority, in memory, history and the moment.


    I am also a respected editor.

    Clients have publishing records, from global bestsellers to community anthologies. An experienced, insightful university lecturer, facilitator, and mentor, trained in writing therapies, taking a person-centred approach to writers and writing, working with all standards and all levels in the same way - respectfully.

  • These are the cornerstones of my empowering approach

    which permeate this site and my writing.

    Writing is Life

    From my first publication, aged eight, to now over four decades later, I am a lifelong enthusiast of the written word, yours, mine, and the life changing elixir the writing act and story becomes.

    Page and Person

    One informs the other. This is what they might call my unique selling point, I prefer essential definition, of both who I am and what I do.

    Pen to Paper

    This is the most judged external act of our lives and must reclaimed as a unique testament to who we are.

    Encouragement

    This is the only true criticism. Give it. Take it. Live it.

    Editing

    An enlightening process, if there is trust in development. Author and editor should work well and together.

    Expertise

    This should not be touted, but earned. Enthusiasm is vital.

    Question, don’t Order

    The question mark is shaped like the ear for a reason.

    As an author I listen to characters, as a mentor and editor I listen to you.

  • ‘An unparalleled feel for narrative’, ‘technical genius’, ‘great writer’ — are words which have been used of me.

    In all environments — including my purpose built creative space where I run the Cabin Creatives — I am stone and story circle above literary circle. I believe in the timeless, equalising power of words and the modern need to express them, in your own way, to reach your true nature.

  • A great writer, a great facilitator, a great person

     

    Suzanne Power is insightful, intuitive, has a profound grasp of characterisation, and an unparalleled feel for narrative. She understands not just books, but human beings and their myriad dramas, which makes her a great writer herself, and a great person to facilitate the writings of other people.
    Suzanne has helped me with several of my novels. She's kind, wise and honest.

    Marian Keyes

    Gifted and acclaimed, warm and encouraging

    A gifted and critically acclaimed writer, Suzanne Power is also a warm, encouraging and inspiring mentor, one who has always put her extensive experience in the publishing industry to great use encouraging and guiding the talents of others. Suzanne has always had a real talent for getting the best from others, while ever mindful of the many challenges writers face on the road to publication. Suzanne’s guidance is inspiring, creative but above all practical and cannot fail to be of benefit to writers young and old. In my experience Suzanne’s guidance is invaluable and I cannot recommend her highly enough.
    Heidi Murphy, Buying Manager, WH Smith, Chair of Bookselling Ireland

    She writes the truth

    Some people think that writing is largely about words. It's not. It's about emotion and emotional truth. It's about penetrating into heart of something, however you do it. It's about stripping away so that truth can be revealed. Sometimes it's the absence of words that is important. I've only met a few people who understand what writing is about. Suzanne Power is one of those. The truth. Plain unvarnished prose. She can write it and she understands it.
    Peter Sheridan, author, playwright, director

    A wonderful writer who cares

    Read her books, listen to her voice, learn from her, be intrigued and confronted by the ideas and characters she creates. Meet a wonderful writer and, more importantly, a person who cares deeply about her own work and the work of others.
    John MacKenna, author, poet, playwright, director
