Book Coaching is NOT a one size fits all formula. Think about it like a personal trainer for your writing aspirations.
Every writer has their own
specific goals.
A coaching relationship is
personal and tailored to get
YOU where you want to go.
​
The best first step is a 1-on-1 phone or video chat. It is FREE and there are NO obligations. It's like a coffee date to see if we can be writing friends.
