ACCELERATED AUTHORS PLAN
WHAT IS THE ACCELERATED AUTHORS PLAN?
In its simplest form The Accelerated Authors Plan gives you structured steps and one-on-one, personal guidance that show you how to get your book done. Regardless of where you are in your storytelling journey, The Accelerated Authors Plan fast tracks your goal of authoring your book and getting it published.
First we plan
Where Do We Start?
Whether you’ve written none, some, or even all, of a first draft of your book, we begin by getting clear on the message of your story before you write the first, or next, draft. Using my Story Mapping Method, I help you discover the message (or wisdom) you want to share as a result of writing your book. Then we map out your story, so you know exactly what it is you want to write BEFORE you actually sit down to write your manuscript.
Then together we come up with a writing/review schedule in which I repeatedly read and review your manuscript as you write (or rewrite) it. In between each review, I go over my story notes with you in personalized, one-on-one session.
But What If I Have Just an Idea?
If you haven’t started writing yet, we’ll chart the course of your storytelling journey together, from finding your message, to structuring your story, to writing your book. The expert insight you gain when I help you develop your story before you write it, allows you to level up faster because you'll understand the basics of storytelling and story structure. As a result, our discussions of your story will be more meaningful for you, which means you'll be more productive when you write.
Then you (re)write
If you're serious about your writing journey, accountability is key. The Accelerated Authors Plan is the perfect way for you to make a writing plan, and stay accountable to it. It’s a win-win situation, because as you progress with your writing, you simultaneously receive customized, personalize guidance and support along the way.
Through my private coaching you get:
Clear steps that show you how to get your book done
Valuable verbal and written feedback based on my careful review your work
Advice on how to get through the challenging parts of your writing
Professional instruction on how to structure your story (so it has a beginning, middle, and end)
Customized strategies that teach you how to stay motivated
As a best-selling author of the award-winning book The Memoir Midwife: Nine Steps to Self-Publishing Your Book, a successful story editor, and a self-publishing consultant, I offer you the opportunity to work with me so I can mentor you in the development of your story. I want to help you bring forth the best story possible, regardless of where you are in your writing process, or how much previous writing experience you have. You don’t have to be a professional writer for us to work together.
