Would you like to work together past this Strategy Session?
Here are some ways I can help you take your project further, after our Strategy Session, in one-on-one coaching:
- Help create a 3D Revision plan that solves the problems highlighted in your Strategy Session, by prioritizing which edits need to be done first, brainstorming wholistic solutions, and giving you a strategic way to execute your revisions, so you are organized and efficient.
- Help fix structural problems that surface in our Strategy Session through completing the Blueprint, an Author Accelerator tool to help design and revise writing projects.
- Help design or rework your query, synopsis, or book proposal for agents and/or publishers to match the changes needed in your review with me.
- Create a pitch strategy for approaching agents or publishers when your manuscript is polished and ready for the world to see!
If you would like to explore working together, I will extend our video conferencing meeting by an hour to have a free discovery call. We will then discuss what working together further could look like, with no strings attached.

- Is my writing is ready for the spotlight?
- Can readers really connect with it?

- You might be getting rejections when pitching your work to traditional or hybrid publishers.
