I've been mentoring and teaching creative writing students for over a decade as a university professor of creative writing and literature. I've taught courses in Shakespeare, Pulitzer prize-winning fiction, classical and contemporary poetry, creative writing of course, and more. I graduated summa cum laude with my MFA in creative writing, and started teaching in college at the age of 23. I've spent nearly two decades studying the greatest authors who have ever lived, so you don't have to.

I'm a book coach and developmental editor who will guide you every step of the way. My superpower is noticing all the details that everybody else misses. I'm also a certified mindset coach, which means that I know the difference between being stuck because you haven't yet mastered a key writing strategy, or because you simply haven't yet mastered the successful author mindset. I give you both writing strategy and success mindset. 

I'm Bayla Abdurachmanov; my students call me Professor A.
