About Helen Sword
Welcome, fellow writer!
I’m Helen Sword, a scholar, poet, lifelong teacher, and the author of six research-based books on writing and writers.
I’ve helped thousands of writers find their voice, tell their story, strut their style, and discover new pleasure in writing — and I’d love to help you, too!
About Helen Sword
I’ve been a writer for most of my life and a writer-about-writing for the past several decades. In short, writing is my research area, my vocation, and my passion!
Here’s a photo of me with Freddie, my four-year-old bichon frise, whom you’ll meet in many of my Swordsnip videos.
