Beyond the books, Heinze Quill is a home for writers recovering the women history overlooked.
If you write historical fiction or creative nonfiction — and you want it rigorous, researched, and beautifully told — here is how we can work together: live craft courses, one-on-one and small-group coaching, and a book contest that ends in a real publishing contract.
A live, six-session series on the craft of historical fiction, worked factor by factor over Zoom — two programs a year. Each session: teach, demonstrate, practice on your own pages, discuss.
$99 per 90-minute session · includes The Hunt
Six sessions on using AI to research faster and see more — without fabricating a thing. One rule governs everything: every claim ties to a real source; the AI proposes, you verify. Taught from My Other Mother.

A small group of three, meeting weekly for two hours over three to six months, with document review included — craft, community, and accountability.

Our book contest ends in something rare: four winning manuscripts receive traditional publishing contracts. And no one leaves empty-handed — each of the first one hundred entrants receives a free three-page professional assessment of their manuscript, the kind of honest, specific read most writers wait years for.
The Prize is open to all writers, women and men. Judging is on literary merit, and the stories we are hunting for are the ones the record left out: the women history overlooked. Entry is $125.
