YOUR STORY IS A LIVING THING. IF YOU BRING THE HEART, I'LL PROVIDE THE BONES
Hi, I'm Dara Silverman.
I run Heart and Bones Writing—your one stop word shop.
​
With a Master's degree in Creative Writing and a background in playwriting, I specialize in ghostwriting memoirs, creative non-fiction, fiction and screenplays. I also offer coaching and editing services for those who want to make their own work stronger.
​
I'm also the founder, Artistic Director and playwright for Agile Rascal - a theater company that intersects the arts and cycling.
WHY "HEART AND BONES?"
YOU BRING THE HEART - YOUR STORY, WISDOM AND EXPERTISE
Lots of people have amazing life stories, rich internal worlds and wild imaginations. But what those people might not have is the time, or the training, to turn those stories and ideas into words on the page.
I’LL PROVIDE THE BONES — THE SHAPE AND STRUCTURE
Organization is the most invisible part of the writing process—from the big ideas that hold it all together, all the way down to a single sentence or a line of dialogue—but without it, all those meaningful ideas and heartfelt moments won’t hold together.
"I enlisted Dara to help me rewrite a project I wanted to elevate. Dara detailed and outlined exactly what it would take from both of us to reach my goals. She then immersed herself in my project as if it were her own. Her ability to see the big picture and make every small detail connect along the way was brilliant. Working with Dara was one of those life moments where you think, “This was meant to be!”
