A Year Long Writing Mentorship? 

I know most writers need a few things to make real progress in their writing:

1. Some clear steps to follow to start, write and complete. 
2. Experienced mentors to give you the right advice, hold you accountable and make sure you get al the way to the end.
3. A methodology that works to push your book to completion, layout and publication. 
 

You are getting all these key elements.  The mentorship is highly successful because of the many accountability factors I have in place. ​These are the real day-to-day nudges that are included, to keep you writing, keep you inspired and most importantly help you over your writing slumps.   

This is not an online course at all, this is a mentorship process.  You will do the writing, with a team to support you.

At the end of the process you will have a book in your hand. This mentorship excludes the cost of printing your book but will take you all the way to that stage. 

​

HOW DOES IT WORK?

You are going to be supported all the way to write, rewrite and finish your book.

 

For the first few months we will follow the clear writing process outlined in the book Write your Book in 100 Days . This is a process over 180 authors have used to write and publish over 17 years. It is solid. This is a clear and structured writing process that will get you to create, plan, write and COMPLETE your first draft of your book. 

Depending on what you enjoy in a creative process, you can join the group of authors travelling a similar journey or you can work solo with your mentor (but can dip into the group sessions for discipline and connection).  You will move down the path to publication,  but the writing journey is your own. 
 

  • You will be on a fixed and structured course with lessons and tasks that will bring together the architecture of your book. This is a very structured programme with a series of emails, calls and key lessons over these months and will take you all the way to a solid first draft over the first few months.  

  • Once your first draft is complete we will start the process of review and refinement. 

  •  You will work with a mentor and meet every 4 weeks to review your work and to keep your book on track and make sure you are meeting your word count deadlines. 

  • We expect updates every 2 weeks in the initial planning phases. As you move into the writing phase you will be required to complete a scene or chapter every two weeks for review and input.

  • ​We want you to put in the time - so we have a number of group writing dates. Every single Wednesday we have an (optional) scheduled writing group for 4 hours which will push up your word count and allow you to write in community and connect with your mentors and other authors. 

  • We have a monthly 'At Home Writing Binge' of three days of solid writing, 7 hours a day. 


​These are all part of the mentorship structure. ​
