Who needs a Writing Coach?
The Start Your Story Bundle is the combination of having Writing Coach and an Editor
Let Success Life U. and Skinny Brown Dog Media help you tell your story the way you want it told.
Why should I hire a writing coach?
Writing your life story can be intimidating. Whether printing a book for your family or to publish to inspire the world, you have to choose an overarching theme and develop a captivating narrative.
Writing is a solitary, often lonely endeavor, and it’s easy to stray from your intentions. We can help keep you on task. Some people have an idea for a book, but have no idea where to start. Others have started and faltered as the storyline falls apart midstream.
A writing coach helps you identify your theme and guides you to explore, discover, and write words that matter, both to you and your intended readers. Your coach also provides critical (gentle) accountability to keep you focused right to the last word. Coaches help make the process of writing joyful.
Note: Coaching is different from editing in that coaches work with you from your first word to the last, or before you’ve made too much progress on your story, while developmental editing works on a completed manuscript causing you to possibly rewrite huge sections of your book, resulting in extra time, expense, and some emotional turmoil on your behalf.
WHY WORK WITH ME?
I can help. My superpower (we all have one) is the ability to read any manuscript and clearly see what’s working, what isn’t, why, and what to do about it -- not based on “writing rules,” “technique,” or “wordsmithing,” but on what your reader’s brain is wired to crave, hunt for, and respond to in every story.
I will give your manuscript a slow, deep read, and then we’ll spend and discuss in detail what works, what doesn't, and what you can do about it.
The conversations are spirited, fast-paced, full of new ideas, and brainstorming. Rest assured, I will never point out a problem without offering specific solutions.
Based on each session, I will give you a specific writing assignment to help you dig into and develop what we’ve talked about, and begin to spin new ideas.
Unlike those other online "publishers/editors" I read your manuscript. I sit down with your story in my hand and walk through the journey the way you would want it experienced.
Your story is personal and yes the editing process at times might "sting" a little the Bigger Goal is for you and story to transform lives and I take my role in that very seriously.
THE TRUTH:
THE NITTY GRITTY:.
Note: Coaching entails a review, not an edit of your work each week, though your coach will provide feedback to improve your writing as you go. The time devoted to editing at the end is minimized since you will work with the same person. The goal is to receive solid direction and gentle accountability to help you complete a beautiful first draft efficiently. Along the way, your coach reviews the content to match your desired outcome gathered from your answers to our Anchor Questions.
Can I really write my book in 3 months?
Authors who use the start your story bundle average between 3-5 months to complete a final manuscript. Remember each write and each story is different however at the end of 3 months following the process and working closely with your writing coach. You can have a finished manuscript.
Awards Received by our published authors and writers, many of them first-timers who came with only an idea and a desire to tell their story.
