Are you in the process of writing or plotting a book and in need of some help? Would you like to brainstorm ideas with someone? Are you interested in having an editor read your draft as you’re writing to ensure you’re on the right track? If so, book coaching might be a great fit for you. I tailor each book coaching program to fit the author’s needs, whether the writer is looking for just a couple of calls or a year-long collaboration with editing and discussions each month.

Is there something you think I can help you with that is not listed here? Please feel free to contact me with any other requests, as I would be happy to chat with you about how we might be able to work together.
