When you sit down to write, or even think about writing, does your world tilt a little? Do you suddenly feel a tiger—or maybe a rabid typewriter—is going to spring out from behind the desk? Do you feel ashamed that you just can’t finish that novel you started because your voice was taken from you? Are you scared you’ve lost your spark?
If so, then for just a moment, consider this: If we don’t have to be healed to begin, we don’t have to be healed to finish either.
That resistance in your body and brain means your story is begging to be told. Your words want to change the world, or at least a mind. Do you yearn to tell others they’re not alone? That they’re loved? That they’re worthy? That there’s hope?
Me too, so let’s do it together.
Are you ready to reclaim your voice?
Hello! I’m Anna!
I’m an editor and Author Accelerator certified book coach. In my past, I was silenced, my spark all but fizzled out. So I became what I wished I’d had when my voice got too quiet.
My mission is to brave the seas and cities of the worlds you create to refuel your creative spirit, find your voice, and refine your story. All stories mean something, and those meanings are my treasures.
What on earth is a book coach?
So glad you asked! A book coach is kind of like having an editor, mentor, cheerleader (pom poms included), and friend packaged into one person. A book coach works with an author from where they are, giving feedback and support at every stage of the writing process. Coaches provide goals and accountability tailored to an author’s needs and emotional support during the inevitable ups and downs of bringing a book into the world. We can also act as “post-production” guides, helping authors think critically about their goals, their content, and the marketplace they’ll be entering with their finished book.
Your book doesn’t have to remain a dream.
