COACHING

  • Do you sense an untold story or message inside you but don't know how to get started?  
  • Have you started your book but struggle with organizing your thoughts into readable text?

Manuscript Review

Angie, you're gold. So much is plain to see as far as the big notes of characterization and sentences that spark with verbs rather than passivity. I think I am so self-aware now that I can edit this draft to that end.   Neal  Turnage, The Boy on the Board

My Writing Roots

My Writing Roots

My Writing Roots

  You know how you can watch a child play and figure out what they are wired to "do" and "be" when they grow up? I was the kid making homemade books sitting cross-legged on the floor. I would write little stories then draw pictures to bring them to life and staple the whole thing together when it was time to "publish." I followed that lifelong passion for words and books by carving out a career in the

publishing industry.


My editorial experience ranges from magazine editing to website content creation/column writing to ghostwriting to book editing to editorial project management. 


A former writer for Publishers Weekly,

I have authored more than a dozen books including The 7 Deadly Sins of Writing; I also ghostwrote the bestsellers Cadence: A Tale of Fast Business Growth by Pete Williams, Healing One Cell at a Time by Dr. Gordon Crozier, and Out of the Devil’s Cauldron by evangelist John Ramirez, among others.


Whether it's writing, coaching, honing manuscripts, or speaking, I spark to life when I'm helping other writers give birth to the stories and messages within them.

FAQs

My Writing Roots

FAQs

  1. What can I expect in a coaching call? During your session(s), I will find out your biggest author stumbling blocks and tackle each one. Common examples: honing your core message, whether to write in first person or third person, what type of book should this be--a memoir or a teaching book, how do I "show" and not "tell," organizing thoughts/topics, is the scope of my book too large or too small? 
  2. Will Angie be the editor on my book project? Whenever possible, yes--but during busy seasons I take a team approach and have one of my team editors do the hands-on editing, followed by a QC scroll-thru by me. Team editors are selected for their excellence and are so skilled I would entrust my own book to them!
  3. How do I pay for services? Editing projects require a 50% deposit to schedule the work. Contact me and I will send you a quote based on the editing level needed and word count. Coaching is on a per-hour basis. Ghostwriting requires a customized quote.
