Book Coaching for Children’s Book Writers
I’m just going to come out and say it: writing a book is HARD.
And it’s even harder if your dream is not only to write a kick-ass book, but to write a kick-ass book that inspires, resonates with and brings joy to the next generation.
Writing a book is also a labour of love. You need to show up week in, week out if you’re serious about getting your story out into the world. It can be hard to keep motivated and stay on track over many months or years, hoping against hope that if you just keep plodding on – reading enough craft books and taking enough online courses – you’ll get there in the end.
But what if it could be different?
When you write your book with a book coach by your side, you’ll have your very own …
Story specialist
to give you personalised
feedback on your work.
Brainstorming partner
to bounce ideas around with when you get stuck.
Accountability partner
to motivate you to keep writing regularly.
Project manager
to keep you organised and
on track with your writing.
Cheerleader
to encourage you when
the going gets tough.
Sounding board
to help you find the
heart of your story.
Sounds like a dream come true?
Then one of my coaching packages might be just the thing.
I offer both one-off coaching sessions and monthly book coaching.
Single
Coaching Session
€75
If you need a bit of help but aren’t ready to commit to regular coaching sessions, a single coaching session is right for you.
You can use a one-off coaching session to get help with refining your story idea, how to get started on your book, specific craft topics, time management, writing habits, self-doubt and so much more.
What you’ll get
• A safe space to explore your ideas and your story.
• A questionnaire to fill out before our call so I understand how I can help.
• 1 coaching call (45 mins) to discuss it all.
• A taste of my coaching style and of what you can achieve with the support of a book coach!
Monthly
Book Coaching
€325 / month
(min. 3 months)
Whether you’re at the planning or revising stage, we’ll first work closely together to ensure your book has a strong framework, before moving on to regular submissions of pages.
Working on the structure of your story typically requires three months. A full write or rewrite of your manuscript can take twelve months or more.
What you’ll get
• A safe space to explore your ideas and your story.
• Monthly submissions of up to 20 pages.
• In-line comments on your submissions.
• An editorial feedback letter (2 to 3 pages) containing detailed story-level feedback.
• 1 coaching call (45 mins) to discuss it all.
• Ongoing support and accountability.
