Announcing a brand-new membership designed for entrepreneurs who want to grow their business by writing and publishing a book!

Are you unsure of where to start? No problem. There’s a pathway for you.

Have you finished writing and started wondering “what’s next”? There’s a pathway to help you make sense of all the publishing options available to you.

Are you published but not getting the readership you want? We’ve got your back—because you’ll quickly learn that the work doesn't stop just because your book is published.

Check out a quick Pathway Progression Map overview below of what you’ll learn in each pathway:

We’ve created four different pathways in the membership. The first one is for those of you just starting out. You need to simply get writing—develop a practice and outline your book.

The Best Part of Joining the Community is…

It's All Tailored to Where You Are in the Writing Journey.

That’s right, this writing journey isn’t a one-size-fits all experience. It’s been specifically created to support you on your writing path—no matter where you are in the process.

Turn Your Message Into a Book—and Your Book Into Income

Publish your book, grow your audience and turn your message into income

Learn the exact steps to build a platform, reach the right readers, and grow your brand through authorship.

“Most people think that when you’re writing a book, that you’re writing a book to publish the book and become known as an author, and make money and whatever else, right? When you’re writing a book, you’re making a business card. You’re making a brochure, you’re making something so that when you meet people, you can say, ‘Here, here’s my book. I wrote this. This has got my best ideas to help you in some area of your life.’”
