These two programs are built around a book: yours. If what you're after is strategy or consulting without one, book the call anyway—we can discuss how I might be able to help. But the Book Coach and the Book Community are for those writing a book.

No! Most of the people I work with have never written one. What you need is something to say and the willingness to show up. I bring the structure and honest feedback.

My practice is built on nonfiction: books that build a business, help others, and share stories. But I'm writing a trilogy of my own, and I've learned that fiction is a beautiful place to work out a true story; sometimes it's the only place you can. If a novel is what's calling you, book the call anyway. Let's see where it goes.

Both programs run a year: long enough to write a real book and launch it properly, with a pace we'll map together on the first call. As I once wrote about training for marathons: “There's a reason why you start a stick shift car in first gear: it would sputter and die if you started out in fifth.”

Same year, same goal, different table:

Book Coach is a one-year program at $15,000, with monthly one-on-one meetings. The Book Community runs 12 months from $10,000, with live group sessions twice a month. I'll walk you through both on the discovery call and tell you honestly which one fits.

Start with a workshop. You'll leave with real pages and momentum you can feel, and you'll know whether coaching is your next step. And the writing retreats are coming. Get on the list and you'll hear first.
