Who is TinaO & Meribeth Deen?

First and foremost we are writers.

We get you.

We appreciate your love for writing and all it takes to get a book done.

We are your coaches, your friends (yes – that’s how this works), your champions, and your book’s advocate. We want you to love your book as much as the world will.

We are structured.

We are as direct as we are casual.

We are with you until your book is done (if you want that).

Here are our official bios:

Meribeth Deen is a freelance writer, storyteller and editor. She’s also a writing coach and the other half of The Writer’s Adventure. Career highlights include those radio documentaries she produced a lifetime ago from Malaysia, Turkey, France, the UK and hard-to-get to places in Canada. The world of documentary film and television were fun too – but these days life is settled, contemplative and filled with adventures brought home in random . books from second hand stores. She is passionate about building connection and creating positive change through story.


TinaO is a Writer, Story Coach, and a pursuer of myth and deep story. She’s the co-owner of Intentional Success with Gina Best, and the other half of The Writer’s Adventure with Meribeth Deen. Her work hinges on the belief that stories are both living and sacred, that they call to us and when they do – they are trying to teach us something. “It’s our job to dive in, follow the path and be open to the adventure – especially if we don’t know where it is taking us.”

Writing is personal but not precious. We know how important it is to find the ‘right’ writing coach for you, so reach out here if you would like to have a conversation with us. We’re here for you.
