MEET THE FOUNDER
Hey, I'm Domenica!
I'm an Amazon bestselling author, author coach, and copy editor. I'm the founder of Word Witch®. I hold a bachelor’s degree in English and Professional Writing, and I'm pursuing an MFA in Popular Fiction Writing and Publishing from Emerson College.
I began copyediting in 2020 when I went back to college to follow my dream of becoming an author. To help pay for tuition, I started editing on a freelancing website. One I had a few manuscripts under my belt, I went out on my own and established Word Witch.
Since then I have taken on coaching clients wanting to write or finish their manuscripts. I've worked with dozens of authors across genres and love helping bring books into the world.
Who I Work With
I specialize in coaching self-help, personal development, and spirituality authors—the mystics, mentors, and soul-led teachers who are here to heal the world with their stories and messages. I also work with fiction writers, especially those in the sci-fi, fantasy, and horror genres, which are my first loves, and the genres in which I write most often. That said, I’ll happily support authors in any genre, as long as the story comes from the heart and the message is aligned.
A Little Magic Behind the Scenes
When I’m not helping authors write and edit their books, you can find me writing in my sacred writing space, at the gym, wandering through the woods with my husband and our dog, Athena, or delving into all things woo-woo from ancient religions to alchemy.
You can also tune into The Word Witch Podcast, where I talk with spiritual teachers, witches, mystics, energy healers, and light workers about channeling universal truths into the written word—and write books that change lives.
"I've commissioned her to tighten up two of my fiction manuscripts, and I'll continue to turn to her for my proofreading needs."
“Working with Domenica has been a joy. She communicates promptly and clearly, sets clear expectations, and provides great feedback.”
Domenica has been a wonderful teacher and guide on this journey. I have learned so much during these past 6 months. She cares so much about her students, and I felt heard, seen, and safe in her presence. I have never thought about a writer's wound before, and the way she structured the workshops and provided us with feedback was priceless. I am in so much gratitude for her guidance and the work she is doing and bringing into this world, helping writers to find their voice, so they can help others through their books. Thank you so much for your big heart, for your endless compassion, and your kindness. Your work is so needed.
Before joining the Woo-Woo Writers Workshop (former program title), for 5 years, I had a small inner voice that told me to write a book. But I had no idea where to start or what the process looked like. I didn’t think that I was capable of writing a book with my writing ability. I certainly didn’t believe writing a book was something I could do. But that inner voice kept making noise in the background. Then, I met Domenica, and I knew she would be the one to help me start this journey to authorship. Six months later, I have a full first draft. What!! Me, a writer? This program completely transformed the way I see myself. I went from feeling like an imposter to owning my identity as a writer. With Domenica’s support and the structure and contents of the program, I learned how to quiet my inner critic, stay consistent, and trust that this book is part of my bigger mission and message in the world. If you can hear even the tiniest voice whispering “yes”… that’s your future self calling you forward. Trust it. This program gave me the tools, roadmap, and confidence I needed to finish my first draft, and I know it can do the same for you.
