Book Coaching
Writing a book can be a massive endeavor full of ups and downs and ambiguity. Whether this is your first book or your seventh, it may help you to have a sounding board, an encouraging guide, and an accountability partner. With me, book coaching can look like pinning down a plot, closely examining a trouble spot in your book, or simply talking through ideas, craft, and the publishing process. I’ve been through the query trenches; I’ve self-published two books; I’ve finished a full-length novel. I’m familiar with the frustrations of fighting to flesh out a vision I believe in while balancing myriads of life’s obstacles. But with enough determination, I believe anybody can write their book!
As a coach, I’m a terrific brainstormer and strategist. I deliver insightful feedback, as much I encourage a healthy, lively dialogue. I love getting to know my clients’ goals and vision for their book. I’m both gentle but also straightforward, always keeping your vision in mind as we edit, write, and generate ideas. I’m a great fit for you if you love to laugh, talk shop, and learn from each other in a casual, low-stakes, but motivating setting. I’ve been described many times as “driven,” and I’d say I apply that say kind of laser-focus to my clients’ work as much as my own!
If it sounds like we’d be a great fit, please feel free to contact me today for a free, no-commitment outreach call. I’d love to learn more about your book and your goals!
