Let’s take your gazillion ideas and turn them into a commanding, business-catapulting book

Think of our relationship as a thought partnership. You’re in for a series of choices that stop most would-be authors in their tracks: I help you navigate the choices that stop most would-be authors in their tracks until you’ve got a page-turner that changes lives and garners you respect.

I’m what you’d consider a zero nonsense content developer who specializes in high-impact, profit-generating books.

I understand business and the power of personal story

I work with coaches, consultants, and speakers who don’t have all day to play around writing ineffectual drivel because they’re running a demanding business (and it’s only getting bigger). They’ve got millions of ideas, enough to fill five books, and they want someone who can spot the gold in the mix and keep them on task.

Three things you should know about the way I do work

My Job Is To Get A Publishable Book, And I Take That Job Very Seriously 

In the same way I won’t ever tolerate excuses from you, you’ll never have to tolerate them from me. This is about anteing up, and that’s exactly what we’ll do…one chapter at a time….until you’ve got a manuscript in your hands that will blow your mind. Note: This will happen sooner rather than later.

I’m a Harvard-trained writer, author, publisher of numerous best-selling books, developmental editor, ghostwriter, and a certified sales and marketing coach.

Through those experiences, I’ve learned which stories get results; and which should be soaked in gasoline and burned on the lawn. I will behave accordingly as your book coach.

One Hour With Me SAVES One Month Of Floundering On Your Own.

That’s a lot of hours you could devote to making money in your business. In other words, our time together is HUGELY valuable so let’s cut to the chase and own this thing.

How to eat the elephant

Straight-talking, funny and brutally honest, How To Eat The Elephant will give you–yes, you–the push you need to haul your hind parts off the sofa and position it in front of your computer long enough to produce a real, live book.

You can go down some roads you SO don’t want to go.

(Cue theme song from Deliverance.)

These are my stories

If you want your book to attract the perfect reader so you can grow your business, you’ve got to tell it like it is, and be wholly you. Yes, the relevancy of your content is important, but readers also want to know if they can connect with you on an emotional, philosophical, or even spiritual level before they’ll listen to you, let alone look for ways to work with you. Want to know my deal? Well, this is my take on life, writing, and reading.
