Are you afraid to share your writing or get input on your ideas? Afraid that someone will negatively alter your process or take the joy away from your writing?


Then this episode is for you! 

Today, we focus on the emotional challenges of writing a novel and how a book coach can help writers navigate these obstacles. 




I discuss the concept of book coaching and explain how a book coach supports writers through the entire writing process, from planning and drafting to revising and pitching. 




The goal is to improve the manuscript's quality and help the writer achieve their publishing goals, whether through traditional publishing or self-publishing. It's never to overshadow or infringe upon the writer's unique creative process. 




I interview my client, Monique, a fantasy author, who shares how book coaching transformed her writing process.




Monique openly discusses her initial fears and challenges, including self-doubt and the struggle to incorporate conflict into her stories. She highlighted the importance of accepting that no words are wasted and persevering through the fear of sharing work and how, by doing so, she ultimately became a stronger writer. 




The episode emphasizes that writing is a difficult but rewarding process, and with the right support, writers can overcome their unhelpful internal narratives and write their damn stories!
