Why Hire a Book Coach
We all need a coach. Hemingway had coaches. Stephen King had a coach. Mary Shelley had a coach. Even Joe Bunting, the founder of The Write Practice, had a coach.
You need someone who can point you in the right direction for your unique writing journey, who can tell you what’s working and what’s not working in your writing, and who can help you problem solve on your way to publication.
When you hire a Write Practice certified book coach, here’s what you’ll get:
1. The Write Structure for Your Project
All our coaches are trained in The Write Structure framework and can pinpoint the structural strengths and challenges for your book.
2. Encouraging Feedback
Writing is hard! You need someone who can not only tell you what’s not working in your writing (and how to fix it), but who can tell you what is working and encourage you to keep going.
3. Accountability
Our coaches know how to provide the accountability you need to stay focused and finish your book.
4. A Problem Solver
Every book project comes with confusing problems that can be tough to solve on your own. Get someone who knows how books work and can brainstorm solutions to your problems.
5. Someone Who Cares
Writing can feel lonely. There aren’t many people who understand what it’s like to write and publish a book. It’s good to have someone who knows the process, can speak with authority about next steps, and can help point you in the right direction not only for this book, but your entire author career.
We all need a coach. If you’re ready to find yours, meet our certified book coaches below.

Yes, I would work with this coach again!
His observations were delivered in a casual, relaxed style, making the medicine go down easily. He is personable, yet professional, encouraging but direct. He has seen and lived through my genre before, and this experience is valuable. I would definitely work with this man again.

Kitty's review of my story has helped me improve my writing several times over. Her attention to details was amazing. She has the ability to communicate both tactically and strategically. She is a fantastic coach and I intend to work with again.

Kitty is a very insightful but compassionate coach. I love that we can discuss the points and hash them out. This enables me to work through the different points, which I find very helpful. I know the book will be better for working with her.
