Book Writing Coach - Book Shepherd

$50/hr Starting at $25

I am a professional writer and personal story/memoir specialist. If you have a book idea and need some guidance in terms of how to approach your book project, identifying your audience, choosing publishing options, and how to employ fiction tools such as narration, dialogue, characterization, and story arc to your memoir to make it a book your readers can't put down, then I'm here to help. A one hour phone interview is often all it takes to help you define the direction you need to take for your book project. We will discuss what you intend to do with the book, how to market it once it is written, and ways to reach a world-wide audience once your are finished. After our interview, I will provide you with a document outlining our conversation and my professional recommendations as to your next steps regarding your book project. Not everyone needs to hire a ghostwriter. That is often a very expensive route. Most of the time, you need coaching as to your next step, how to find/hire good editors, where to go for book formatting so it doesn't look like a home-made product, and which route to pursue for publishing. As a certified Guided Autobiography instructor and member of the Association of Personal Historians, I really understand how to unlock the stories and memories you will want to include in your book. Your story is important. Helping you tell it is my privilege. Let me help you make your dream of becoming a published author come true. I have helped nearly 100 authors with their stories and I can certainly help you too.

Kathleen is a great professional with amazing insight. She helped me to understand what it was that I actually needed and to write up an outline for my book. Thorough and detailed, speedy with communications, I would definitely work with Kathleen again. What a great find!
