Gwyneth Boyer, Writing Consultant

IAS Community Psychology Major, UWB

I enjoy writing reflective essays and short stories.


When I was younger, and first learning how to write my letters, I noticed that my parents would always sign their names with a loopy scribble. “What’s this?” I thought. My brother told me it was cursive writing and that it was how grown-ups signed their names. I instantly fell in love with the loopy scribbles and would spend hours trying to write my name in the elusive “cursive.” Starting out, of course with a legible lower case g, I then added all the different loops and lines I could to make it resemble what my parents had written. Once I actually learned how to really write in cursive I realized my mistakes and how I was misinterpreting what my parents were actually doing. Since then, I’ve rarely written in print style and I still love cursive writing.

That was the beginning of my love of the written word. Since then I have explored many different aspects of writing, from creative short stories to mundane research papers. During my journey, I received my A.A.S. through Everett Community College and am now a student at UWB finishing up my Bachelors in Community Psychology with an Education minor. My eventual goal is to become a school counselor so I can help children in the beginning of their academic careers become more confident students and eventually well-adjusted adults.

With my previous experience in writing I hope I can help you with any of your writing difficulties. Whether it is brainstorming or a full paper work through, I am here for you!
