Overcome the hurdles to publishing

A non-fiction book is a great way to share insights and establish yourself as an authority in your field. But time constraints and lack of experience are often the reasons great ideas never get published.

Don’t let your project be one that never sees the light of day. The world needs your voice!

How I can help

As a trained journalist and experienced writer, I’ve helped authors write and edit books for over a decade. In 2020, I published my own award-winning book, which opened many doors for me as a speaker and communications expert.

I not only understand the challenge of transforming big ideas into great writing, but I also know that publishing a book is about much more than just getting the words on paper.

I’ve navigated the path from idea to manuscript more times than I can count, and nothing makes me happier than embarking on this adventure with others.

What I can help you with

  • Coaching

    I can guide you through the process, from idea to marketing strategy.

  • Book proposal

    I can create a book proposal that resonates with literary agents and publishers.

  • Development

    I can turn complex information and high-level ideas into a page-turner.

  • Writing

    I can write the book for you or guide you through the writing process.

  • Editing

    I can edit your book from final draft to finished manuscript.

She also gave me good advice about the writing journey and my publishing options. If you’re looking for clarity on form, narrative, throughline, and how to write more engaging prose, she’s the one to call!”

    Jill is a quick study, a deft researcher, and a highly skilled wordsmith who can nail the work with little direction. I know that when I assign her a project, it’s going to get the professional overhaul it needs.”
