Hey author - tired of drowning in book launch details, need a newsletter created, or just ready to hand off the million little things so you can actually write? Let's fix that.

I help authors do the next right thing.

I’m the behind-the-scenes teammate who helps you keep your author business growing even when you’re deep in the writing cave or working your 9 to 5.

Who is this a good fit for?

√ Authors on track to publish with their ducks in a row or are already published.
√ I love fiction authors, but can also offer assistance to non-fiction.

Zoom Strategy & Planning Calls

  • Want more face time? Totally your call! Many authors choose to use some (or all) of their monthly hours for extended strategy/brainstorming sessions, launch planning marathons, or just “work together” co-working calls — 100% up to you and counts toward your hours.​
