Your Child's Writing Mentor & Coach
Starting from $250 including unlimited Writers' 45 workshops
Hi, I'm Brianne Wragg.
As a teacher, my favorite class was creative writing, but I was always fighting against assessments, checklists, time crunches and at the expense of my student’s creativity, writing, and self-expression.
Since then, I have worked as a ghostwriter, copywriter, and editor, and my experiences with my own mentors have shaped my view that all kids benefit from individual writing and creative mentors and coaches.
My favorite thing is empowering my students to improve their writing, stories, poetry, and blogs, leveraging their passions and interests.
I do this through my Writers’ 45 workshops and traditional private mentoring and coaching sessions via Zoom.

What does writing and sports have in common?
Writing, like sports, is a journey of skill and perseverance.
In sports, athletes excel with a coach in their corner, guiding and challenging them at every step. Similarly, in writing, especially for young minds aged 11-16, a mentor is key to unlocking potential. A writing coach doesn’t just teach; they inspire, push boundaries, and illuminate the path to creative excellence. Isn’t it time your young writer had a champion in their corner, turning the solitary act of writing into a triumph of imagination and expression?
What is your child's passions and interests?
My focus is on making writing fun for students by connecting it to what they love. What is your child passionate about? How can those interests inspire and guide creative and writing projects? Passions and interest projects make writing more interesting and personal for them. Whether it’s stories about space and characters, journalism on their favorite sports, or articles on real-life issues, I help students write about what excites them.

"Millie tested 8th grade in her reading and writing (she’s currently 5th grade)... I truly believe all her scores are attributable to her time with Brianne. Before CG, I couldn’t get her to write at all. She loves it now."

We joined 4 months ago after our friends highly recommended this program as a great resource for kids’ creativity and imagination. Right away the Creative Genesis became the most loved program of our son, who is 13 yo and loves working on his projects. During these four months he completed 200 pages comic book, started his YouTube channel and made a lot of digital designs for his online store. We are so thankful that Brianne runs this program for kids even she has full schedule as a professional writer. We feel really lucky and blessed :)))

My son is 13 years old and has struggled in main stream school with the way in which the curriculum is taught. Brianne from Creative Genesis has been such a gift to us. Brianne spends a lot of time getting to know her students, finding their strengths and interests and using these to engage them in creating in many different ways. The sessions are fun and the students are able to interact with other children from all over the world which is something in itself. We have had feedback from teachers at school about my sons wonderful ability to... read more use his imagination to tell and write stories and he is now working with Brianne to create an online video about something he loves. I would recommend Creative Genesis to anyone who wants to enhance their child’s creativity, imagination and learning.

My 11 year old son enjoys writing and has already published a children's book. It took him about 3 years to finish it. He is working on his second book so when I heard that Creative Genesis had a class that was not the typical type of writing class I was excited to look into it. I thought that it might be able to help my son finish his second book faster, giving him more ideas. The class is not only extremely fun but introduced different styles of writing like choose your own adventure, text message style, comics, writing from... read more different points of views for each chapter, escape rooms, etc. He is also learning to describe what is happening in his stories versus tell what is happening. He gets to collaborate with other children or work independently and gets feedback every class from his amazing teacher, Brianne, and the other children. Brianne leads well and really tailors it to the students interests. It even spurred a Rubik's cube club! Brianne knows each of her students well and is so friendly and encouraging. She also keeps parents in the loop on what the children are working on and/or have worked on. My son looks forward to each class and has a great time and I am so glad that she is working with my son. I highly recommend Creative Genesis! It is really so different than any other writing class.

Creative Genesis and Brianne Wragg have been an inspiration for my ten-year-old daughter. Writing was not something she was interested in, and certainly not something she would ever choose to do. Now she looks forward with enthusiasm to her Creative Genesis sessions, writes for fun on her own, and has started a blog. Creative Genesis is a place to be creative, support each other’s writing and have fun. Five stars.

Brianne, at Creative Genesis, has been a true gift to our family. Our son went from being an unenthusiastic writer to getting ready for class 30 minutes early. He is learning more flexible thinking, has a creative outlet for his ideas, and has improved his writing. The students with whom he interacts are supportive and kind.

Common Questions
Getting started with a writing mentor is easy.
How Do Mentorships Start?
The starting point for new writers is joining our Writers’ 45 for the first month free. Mentoring works when a rapport forms, and where better form creative rapport than our Writers’ 45 workshops!
Typically, before commencing a mentorship we have a one-to-one creative scope call – where we can discuss all your creative ideas and thoughts.
How Long Do Mentorships Last?
The duration of mentorships varies and is tailored to suit the nature of each student’s writing project. For ongoing projects, such as maintaining a blog or working on a serial story, the mentorship is continuous, providing sustained support and guidance as the student evolves and grows in their writing journey.
In contrast, for projects with a specific goal or deadline, such as writing a short story for a competition, the mentorship is fixed to a certain timeframe. This ensures focused and intensive guidance to help the student achieve their goal within the set period.
Ultimately, the length of the mentorship is flexible and adapts to the individual needs and objectives of each student, ensuring they receive the right amount of support for their personal writing ambitions.
How Do Mentoring & Writers' 45 Work Together?
Private mentoring and Writers’ 45 complement each other to offer a comprehensive approach to developing young writers’ and creator’s skills.
In private mentoring sessions, we focus on a deep dive into various aspects of writing, publishing, storytelling, argument and design. This includes honing specific skills, exploring writing styles, brainstorming ideas, understanding different structures, and refining editing techniques. These sessions are tailored to each student’s needs, allowing for detailed and focused improvement in their writing.
On the other hand, Writers’ 45 workshops provide a dedicated space for students to apply what they’ve learned. Here, they can spend time drafting, writing, and implementing their skills in a supportive group setting. Writers’ 45 is about putting theory into practice and giving students the time and freedom to experiment with their writing, enhancing their learning experience.
Together, private mentoring and Writers’ 45 ensure that students not only learn the intricacies of writing but also get ample opportunity to practice and perfect their craft.
