‘Tis the Season of Giving—Give Your Book Dream a Jumpstart
You’ve been wanting to write that book for years, but you’re not sure where or how to start—so give yourself the gift of clarity this December—and reserve your spot for a January session that will jumpstart your nonfiction book!
“I’ve always wanted to write a book.”
“People always tell me, ‘You should write a book!’”
“God is calling me to write a book.”
Have you ever said this? If so, it’s time to give yourself the gift of getting going.
Why do I say that?
Lots of people make the above statements—at least in my hearing. Surveys back my experience, too—supposedly between 50-80% of Americans have thought about writing a book. Few ever start, however, and of the tiny percentage that do, an even tinier percentage make it to publishing.
What’s the main thing that holds authors back?
Getting started.
It can feel overwhelming. The blank page feels scary. Thoughts swirl in your head, but how to put them on paper in a way that strikes the right audience? You may have too many ideas, not enough time, or uncertainty about the “right” way to write.
Why Is Getting Started So Hard?
Here are the most common reasons aspiring authors get stuck.
- Fear of failure.
What if it’s not good enough? What if no one wants to read it?
- Lack of clarity.
You have plenty of ideas about what to write, but how do you structure it? How do you reach the right audience? What is the core message?
- Time constraints.
Life is busy. When can you carve out enough time to get organized, much less write? It feels impossible.
Fortunately, there is a way to figure it out. Working with me one-on-one, you’ll define your goals and target audience first, then zero in on your message so the framework of your book becomes clear. This will, in turn, smooth out your writing path—before you even type a single word!
I can tell you from my years of working with lots of aspiring authors that even a moderate amount of dedicated time can take you from “someday” to “I’ve written a book” faster than you expect.
This December, Give Yourself the Gift of Action: Introducing the “January Jumpstart the Book Session”
I’ve designed a 60-90-minute session to help aspiring authors like you clarify your nonfiction book idea, explore possible structures, and identify actionable first steps. You’ll walk away with a clear sense of direction and be able to start the new year with momentum.
The Session Provides . . .
- Clarity on whether your book is a memoir, prescriptive nonfiction, or somewhere in-between.
- Exploration of theme, narrative arc, and what you want to accomplish with your book.
- Your working book blurb AND a short summary of next steps.
- An optional 1-2 page post-session summary with your refined blurb and roadmap.
Investment for this limited-time session is $500 for a 60-90 minute session or $750 with an additional follow-up summary + 2 weeks of email communication for questions.
Reserve your 60-90-minute session this December to secure your spot in January!
Why Is Now the Ideal Time to Get Started?
It’s the end of the year! You’re likely already taking time to pause, reflect, and start things that feel meaningful.
Don’t waste another 12 months letting your ideas gather cobwebs in your brain. Gain some momentum as you enter the new year with a plan to turn your book dream into a reality.
Turn “Someday” into “Right Now”
Whether you’ve dreamed of your book for months or years, this is your chance: turn someday into action. By the end of our session, you’ll have a clear book blurb, a concise roadmap, and confidence to start writing—without feeling overwhelmed or stuck.
