Why Work with a Book Coach—and Why Me?

So, you’ve got a book idea. Maybe it’s been bouncing around in your head for years, or maybe it’s just starting to take shape. Either way, writing a book is an exciting journey, but it’s also a lot. There’s so much more to it than just sitting down and typing out words.

That’s where a book coach comes in. But not just any coach—I’m talking about someone who’s going to help you with the whole picture, not just the writing part. Here’s why I might be the right coach for you.

More than just writing help

I’ve been lucky enough to work with authors at every stage, from that very first idea to the moment they’re holding their finished book. I’ve guided them through writing, but also through things like cover design, building websites, and even marketing. Writing a book isn’t just about the words—it’s about creating something you’re proud to share with the world, and that takes a lot of moving pieces.

I’m here to help you navigate all of that. But that’s not even the most important part (believe it or not!).

A holistic approach to writing

Here’s the truth: writing a book can take a toll. It’s easy to get so wrapped up in it that you forget to take care of yourself. Maybe you’re hunched over your computer for hours, skipping meals, or missing out on time with friends and family. Or maybe the emotional stuff you’re writing about is bringing up things you weren’t expecting.

Trust me, I’ve seen it all.

That’s why I take a more holistic approach. I’ll help you develop a healthy writing routine that works for you—one that keeps you balanced and doesn’t burn you out. Writing a book should feel rewarding, not draining. It should make you feel creative and proud of yourself, not desperate for it to be over.

I’m here to make sure that happens.

Your creative life, not just one book

Some coaches will help you whip out a book as fast as possible, and that’s cool if that’s what you’re after. Everyone has their own goals for writing. But if you’re looking for someone to help you build a long-term creative practice—something that you can keep up for more than just this one book—then I’m your coach.

I believe in helping you create good habits, not just for this project but for your whole writing journey. It’s about setting you up for success not just now, but for the future.

So, if you’re ready to take that next step, I’m here to help. Let’s create not just a book, but a creative life that works for you.
