Learn From Me….
In addition to writing books and book proposals for top experts, celebrities and business people, I also teach writing classes for those who want to create their own book proposal, write their own book or just love to write.
VIP Book Proposal Class - $2,500/private class
This is a four-hour, private class on Zoom. It can be done in one day with a half-hour break or over two or three days. Here, we will go over all the elements of a book proposal, what it entails and work on writing the sections as I share some my top tips and insight. After the session(s), you can send me some of your work to read and we will have another half hour private Zoom several days/ weeks/months later. (The timing is up to you.) I will also send writing prompts for five days prior to our session and five days afterward. These are specifically geared to help you with the book proposal sections. This VIP Book Proposal Class also entitles you to recorded videos of experts in the field including a well-known literary agent, editor at one of the top publishing houses, etc. Getting your idea on paper will nourish your soul, make you feel accomplished and kickstart your writing journey – especially in such a personalized setting.

From Procrastination to Pages Writing Class –$2,900/10 weeks
In this live online writing class, you will get your book idea out of your head and onto paper in a well-written document that is the start of your book proposal/book and can also be sent to agents and publishers. (Some students have used this for blog and podcast content.) This is a 10-week class live on Zoom with me and other participants. We talk about all the elements of a book proposal and discuss what makes interesting, must-read writing. These classes are recorded so if you cannot make a live session, you can view it on your own time. In addition to the weekly meetings, you will receive five daily writing prompts per week, have a one-on-one call with me and be put in peer groups. Guest speakers include at least one literary agent and editor from top publishing house. Getting your idea on paper will nourish your soul, make you feel accomplished and kickstart your writing journey. You don’t have to be a “writer” to be in this class. All you need is the desire to write and enthusiasm. Email me here to sign up or get more info.
Writing from Personal Experience – $2,900/10 weeks
This online Zoom class is for you if you’re working on a book OR you just love to write with no plans to publish or if you fall anywhere in between. (I took a similar class 27 years ago because I just loved to write and that’s when I realized that this could be a career. Freelance writing has been my full-time job ever since.) In this class, we talk about what makes alluring, insightful and interesting writing. Participants read two pages of their work each week and get feedback, not only from me but from others in the class. This mix of feedback is priceless. You will be AMAZED at how much better your writing becomes just by sharing it and talking about it. This class also includes guest speakers like a top literary agent, editor from a publishing house, to name just a few. In addition, to the weekly meetings, you will receive five daily writing prompts per week and have a twenty-minute one-on-one call with me where we can discuss any piece of your writing that you would like. As you may already know, writing is healing. Studies have shown that just getting your thoughts on paper a few minutes a day can really help improve your mood and perspective, not to mention enhance your writing skills. Again, you don’t have to be a “writer” to be in this class. All you need is the desire to write and enthusiasm. Email me here to sign up or get more info.
Writing Prompt Membership – $99/month
This membership includes 4-5 writing prompts per week. Each one instructs you to set your timer for 7 minutes and then write according to the prompt. This helps take away the stress of the blank page and reminds you how healing and inspiring it can be to get your thoughts on paper- all in just 7 minutes a day. If you’re writing a book, you will be amazed at how some of this content will become part of that project. The membership also includes 2-3 writing tips/inspirational quotes per week and, each month, you can share two pages with me via email and get my professional feedback.
