SELF-PUBLISHING
CHECK-IN

You're overwhelmed by the whole self-publishing process, and asking random strangers a series of "how-do-I" questions on social media isn't getting you anywhere. In a single Zoom session, let's dive into the details of your project, cut through all the noise, and create a checklist specific to your personal publishing journey.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

Going the self-publishing track and producing a professional grade title is overwhelming to some new authors. Our consulting package gives you access to expert knowledge that will help you streamline your self-publishing process and stay on task, while also liasing with your editors and designers as needed to produce your book in a timely fashion.

BOOK MARKETING PLANNING

Writing a book is hard enough. But figuring out how to get that book into the hands of your target readers is a part of the process that leaves many writers in a place of  inaction. We create a basic, customized plan to help simplify the process and move beyond the confusion.
