Your Consulting Session for the Published Writer & Creative Entrepreneur

Your book is done and published or almost done and ready to publish, and you're looking at the marketplace with some trepidation, maybe a little excitement. But mostly overwhelm and confusion reign.


How to make sense of the best path forward to the success you yearn for?

You wish that book marketing was easier.


You hope that readers will find and love your book but how to reach them? Social media is so not your thing. But you love words.

Where is the best use of your time and energy and resources to get you book in front of as many people as you can?
How do you sort through all the mess of shouting advice from out there?

How do you make author and book marketing fit YOUR life?
Ultimately, how do you create the successful author's life that you dream of?

Working together we can...

Create book marketing action that suits you and your life

There are many ways to meet your readers in the marketplace and the solution is not a one-size-fits-all. We'll find the right and best solution, for you.

Design the foundations of your author career

Just like building a story, you can craft an author career that works for you on a day-to-day basis. Dreams are great and act as our North Star, but it's the small daily actions that will create the life you desire as a creative.

Construct a road map to your Big Dream

Impossible dreams are possible! We can ground your vision and make it real with a roadmap and tools and skills that bring the vastness of your dream a little bit closer to you day-by-day.

What To Expect From Your Creative Writer Consulting Session

The Basics

We meet on Zoom or phone, or even at a coffee shop if you're local to Oakland, CA, and talk about your goals, visions, and challenges.

Together we'll build your way forward.

All sessions come with a pre-meeting assessment so we can make the most of our time together.

Sessions are 60 minutes long, but may sometimes go a little bit over. So block off 90 minutes.

Optional Add-Ons

If you would like a materials assessment of your social media or other marketing materials, I include an in-depth review with notes. 

Personalized Support

I take great care to craft a personalized and customized experience to you and your needs. 


To that end, I'll be asking deep questions to help us uncover the truth of the matter, so that we can help you unlock your power to accomplish your dreams.


Some of these questions you'll get in the pre-meeting assessment questionnaire. Some I'll ask when we meet. 


Powerful questions can unlock powerful answers.

Feedback

In our session together, I'll ask you want feedback you want from me and what support specifically. At all times, you are the captain of your own ship.


We'll bring some mindfulness, compassion, and grace to the problem, look at it from different angles, and use your inherent creativity to bear on the situation, so that you end up with more resources and a richer version of you today.


Magic can happen in a breath!
