Did you know over 80% of the population intends to write a book "one day"?
Yes,
the dream of becoming an author is commonplace, but only a small percentage will ever actually write that book, and even fewer
will spin their dream into gold.
You are here at my website, because you intend to be one of the few authors who are
golden. And I intend to help you realize that dream.
Questions for you:
- Does the thought of holding
your published book in your hands excite you, but you aren't sure how to begin?
- Are you fired up by the idea of sharing
your message with thousands, but don't know how to make that happen?
- Are you frozen in indecision because you
are having trouble choosing which publishing path is best for you?
- Do you dream of being picked up by a big New York
publishing house, but you have no clue how to do it?
- Are you confident in your knowledge, but uncertain about your
writing skills, or your ability to pull it all together into a book that is not just informative, but engaging and entertaining
as well?

Dear Friend,
If you answered "Yes" to any (or all) of the above
questions, you are not alone.
Would you believe that MOST authors start out right where you are now-even the best-selling
ones?
As an author, author's coach, and acquisitions editor for a publishing company, I have seen first-hand the perspective
of BOTH authors and publishers--the passion for the idea and the business elements that must be in place for a book to succeed.
I
get my greatest fulfillment helping others share their message. I have helped authors through every stage of publishing. From
clarifying your message and target audience, to obtaining an agent, to putting out award-winning,
best-selling books that gain national attention, my job is to help transform
your dreams to reality.
Some of the areas where I help authors include:
Publishing Strategy: Should
you self-publish? Get published? If so, through whom? A big New York house? Independent Press? Vanity Press? There are more
options than ever. No solution is perfect, but there is ONE that is the best fit for you, your book and your overall life
goals. I can help you figure out which path is the BEST fit.
Book Proposal Help: A book proposal is
the blueprint for your book's success. If you want to get an agent and a contract with a big publisher, your book proposal
will make or break the deal. We can either prepare your book proposal for you (with some help from you) or teach you how. Either way, the finished product
is sure to impress!
Self-Publishing Help: Should you decide to self-publish, there are many steps along
the way from concept to completion. We can walk you through and hold your hand through every step. Find out about our Self-publishing Book Launch coaching
program!
Get an Agent: Query letters are useful, but not my favorite route to get an agent. I
have a fool-proof, quick, easy method to find the best agent for your book, get their attention, and close the deal. Check
out our Get an Agent Full-Service Package where we do most of the work for you! Or sign up for my Get An Agent Coaching Program to learn
how to do it yourself!
Editing: It's not what you say, it's how you say it. Great ideas are often
buried in disorganized or poorly worded copy. As an editor, I will make your ideas sparkle and shine!

your Writing: Check out our Writer's Workshop, a low-cost way to improve your writing and be part of a vibrant writing community.
