Book Coaching

Your personal book coach will guide you at whatever stage you are with your novel. If you are just starting out with a nugget of an idea, your dedicated coach will take you through the steps necessary to get your story out of your head and onto the page. If you have made a start, but are struggling to know how to finish, your coach will need to do an assessment of what you’ve written to see where your strengths and weaknesses are, before tailoring subsequent coaching to your needs.
