WHAT I DO

I help people who want to write a business book they can be proud of without wasting valuable time learning the details of book writing and publishing.

WHO I HELP

My authors are men and women who have developed a strong expertise or point of view. They already have a full plate of work and personal commitments, and they want to write a book to sharpen their personal brand and build their reputation. If this sounds like you, book a Get Acquainted Session to get started. 

HOW I HELP

You bring knowledge of your topic and the people who will buy and read your book. I bring my experience of more than fifty years of writing and more than 20 years of coaching. I help you:

• sharpen your thinking about your book, your ideal reader, and the market so you can write the best book possible to achieve your goals.
• develop a unique writing plan so you’re more likely to get the writing done and fit the book project into your life.
• navigate the process and pitfalls of the writing and publishing processes so you avoid costly and time-consuming mistakes. 
• eliminate unnecessary material and identify what you should add to write your best possible book.
• create a reader-friendly book.
• stay the course and get the book done in a way that will make you proud of your work and yourself.

SOME OF MY IMPORTANT BELIEFS

Most of my clients don’t know what they don’t know about the writing and publishing process. 

Every client’s situation is different. Part of my job is to help you develop good writing practices that fit your world and work for you. 

If you know your topic and potential readers, we can find help on everything else. 

Writing a book should be a learning journey. 

I choose to work only with people who want to write a great book.
