Coaching, mentoring and accountability
Your book is really important to you. At the moment it’s only you.
It might make a huge difference to the lives of others' too, but they don’t know that yet.
Something that is so crucial to you deserves to be protected, nourished and enjoyed; just like a garden. Grant your book respect and a place in your life, so you can write it with ease and flow.
Creativity, unfortunately, isn't one of those things that you can muster with a click of the fingers. Writing can’t be squeezed into your over-packed day, like doing the ironing at the same time as calling your Mum. Nor can you churn out meaningful words when you are tired and overwhelmed, just like you can’t continue running fast miles when your body is yearning to lie on the sofa.
Ideas are like elusive butterflies, flitting across your vision when you are least expecting them and often inconveniently - when you are in the shower, dropping off to sleep, on your walk, in the car. When your brain has space and your thoughts have freedom to roam.
So to write a book you have to be intentional and committed to giving it physical, mental and temporal space in your life. I know this is a hard gift to give yourself, but I can help. Are you in?
How it works?
This programme is designed to help you to start writing your book. Its aim is to ensure that you do the spade-work and preparation so that you and your book will grow and blossom.
Every writer is unique and this is a bespoke programme, however it can include the following over 12 sessions:
Find the invisible thread that holds your book together.
Be aware of the pillars that your book is built on.
Know who your book is for.
Decide what it will look like.
Ensure that you are ‘fit’ to write.
Quell your fears and navigate barriers to writing.
Find the best times to write.
Organise your ideas and thoughts.
Produce a book structure.
Design a support network
Create a realistic plan to finish.
Each session will be one-hour and can be either weekly or fortnightly. I will provide a summary following each session. Between each session there will be actions for you to take and I will ask you to send me an update before the following session.
This programme is in development, so it is being offered at a reduced investment in exchange for feedback after each session and a testimonial.
The investment for 12 sessions is £750.00
