A clear path from concept to publishing
Exercises & tools to hone your writing skills
Expert guidance in a community of like-minded writers
When you don't know where to begin, get a guide.
A book can be a great way to introduce the world to you and your work.
But not if you can't get it written.
My advice: Don't do it alone!
A non-fiction writing coaching group is the best way to get started and complete your book. Join best-selling author and writing coach, Cami Ostman, and renowned business coach and author, Carrie Kenner, as we guide you to your completed manuscript.
Most new authors don't know what it takes to write a book. When they try to do it on their own, they flounder and often quit.
If you struggle with inconsistent writing habits, lack of structure, imposter syndrome, finding your voice, or knowing the steps of editing, consider yourself in good company!
The sheer size of writing a book can be intimidating. But you might not know that when you're writing all alone.
That's why a group of like-minded writers can be just the solution to help you start and continue.
I had a writing coach and critique group when I wrote my first book, and it changed my life. I want to do that for you.

When you have support — especially for your first book — you'll save yourself many headaches.

A writing coach helps you create goals for your project and keeps you on track, teaches writing skills, explains the writing-to-publishing process, suggests personalized resources, and guides you through all the phases of getting your book into the world.
In the group setting, we are learning and working together collectively. Someone may ask a question you haven't even thought of yet, and the cross-fertilization of ideas leads to greater creativity. We problem-solve similar issues, share solutions, review each others' work, and have a lot of fun.
We meet twice a month: one session is a skills-based workshop, the other is a collaborative coaching and Q&A session. We also offer drop-in writing sessions, collaborate editing sessions, and an online community for on-going support all year long.
Look at all you'll get done in Books with Purpose:
-
Outline your book in a format that lets you know what you need to write and so you can easily move parts around
-
Identify your ideal reader so you develop the right tone and content to engage them
-
Create a project plan so you have a map (and schedule) of where you are going to see your book to completion
-
Learn the craft of writing with skills workshops, style guides, and more
-
Grow as a writer with heart-centered feedback, constructive critique, and collaborative editing
-
Prepare for editing, publishing, and marketing so you know what to expect before you get to the end
