“More a literary guide than an editor, Julia Mathison helped me discover what my novel wants to be. Her impact was enormous.
A Spirit Nest is not like other workshops. It is personal and holistic. For the morning exercises, over coffee and croissants, Julia comes extremely prepared, knows the writing submission inside and out, and focuses on theme, the overall motivations of the characters and the direction of the plot. A deep reader, she is uniquely insightful. The evenings too were sublime. I enjoyed the regional food and bubbly, excursions in the French countryside, and the conversations by the fire on the writing life in general and my book, in particular.
At night I slept well in my bed, deeply in touch with my work. I left my time in the South of France inspired and driven to keep writing."

"Working with Julia was a turning point for my writing journey.
She is not only an exceptional wordsmith but a true collaborator, able to take the whirlwind of thoughts in my head and shape them into something articulate, poetic and profoundly impactful. Her writing style stood out immediately - elegant, emotionally resonant and incredibly intuitive.
Thanks to Julia, my books found their voice. She brought them together in a way I never could have done alone.
I am deeply grateful for her talent, professionalism, and heart.
If you are looking for someone who can elevate your words and help you birth your vision into reality, Julia is the one."

"I cannot recommend Julia highly enough. We worked on a project for some months and from the very beginning, she brought a calm, eloquent presence to the entire time we worked together. She didn’t just help me write, she truly understood me. She took the time to gently rearrange my thoughts, guide the structure and work alongside me to create something that felt authentic and aligned. Together, we built an incredible manual that combined all my years of intuitive coaching and work, and the final product is something I’m genuinely proud of.
I know I couldn’t have done it without her.
What stood out the most was her patience and generosity. I have dyslexia, and Julia created such a safe, comfortable space where I never once felt judged or overwhelmed. Instead, she recognised the strength and value in my ideas and reassured me that the content was already there. I just needed the right support to bring it to life on paper. Her ability to listen deeply, translate thoughts into beautiful, clear writing is truly a gift.
If you’re considering working with a ghostwriter, I would wholeheartedly recommend Julia to anyone. She is not only talented,she is genuinely kind, intuitive, and incredibly dedicated to her work. I had an exceptional experience working with Julia and would highly recommend her to anyone seeking thoughtful, high quality support."
