My Process
How we work together
Every engagement starts with a strategy session. From there, the path depends on where you are
and where you're going.
Step by Step
What working together actually looks like
01
Strategy Session
We start with a conversation, not a contract.
A one-hour strategy session ($250) is always the first step. We'll talk through your book concept, your audience, your timeline, and your goals. By the end, you'll have a much clearer picture of what your book could be — and whether you want my help making it happen.
No pressure. No obligation. Just a genuinely useful conversation that helps you move forward, whether we work together or not.
02
Proposal & Scope
A custom proposal built around your book.
If the strategy session goes well, I'll put together a proposal outlining the scope of work, timeline, and investment. Every project is different — a ghostwritten book requires a different process than a manuscript critique or a coaching package.
I'll be honest about what your book needs and what I can realistically deliver. No upselling, no vague deliverables.
03
Deep Dive
I immerse myself in your work and your world.
For ghostwriting and editing projects, I spend significant time learning your voice, your methodology, and your audience before writing a single word. This means in-depth interviews, reviewing your existing material, and understanding the transformation you're offering readers.
For coaching, this phase is about understanding where you are in your writing and what's blocking your progress.
04
Writing & Revision
Drafts, feedback loops, and refinement.
Depending on the engagement, I'll deliver draft chapters on a rolling basis or work through your existing manuscript section by section. Every draft is followed by a feedback session — you'll always know exactly where we are and what comes next.
I keep your voice at the center of every revision. If something doesn't sound like you, we fix it until it does.
05
Final Manuscript
A book you're proud to put your name on.
We wrap up with a polished, publication-ready manuscript and a clear path forward — whether that's querying agents, approaching publishers, or self-publishing. I'll give you my honest assessment of the market and where your book fits in it.
Many clients continue working with me after the book is done, turning it into courses, workshops, and speaking content. The book is just the beginning.
