There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is, nor how valuable it is, nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep open and aware directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open.
MARTHA GRAHAM
LET ME BE THE SECRET SAUCE
TO YOUR SUCCESSFUL AUTHORSHIP
Hi, I’m jaime
I show women and men on a mission how to overcome creative obstacles; get clear on their ideas, organization and structure; and actually write their book.
A really freakin’ good book. And we make it fun.
As a professional writer, English professor, author, coach and editor, I guide you through the wild and deeply empowering process of writing a book. As a healing guide, I bring the holistic tools you need to overcome blocks and allow this book project to serve your soul.
I have helped hundreds of coaches, counselors, therapists, healers, soul folk, visionaries and storytellers make their book dreams a reality through my proven book coaching process.
Jaime’s given me strength, structure, and a wide range of support.
Jaime holds space and dives in with you, while masterfully providing a foundational process that makes the overwhelming manageable and grounded. I highly recommend Jaime as a book coach.
RONIT ASHKENAZI, Acupuncturist, WOMEN’S CIRCLE FACILITATOR
Let’s bring out your book writing mojo.
As a book coach, I meet my clients wherever they are in the authorship journey—from those with the early jitters and only an inkling of their book’s potential, to those in the messy middle of the writing process, to those who are so close they could almost lick the finish line. I also help folks through editing and publishing their books too.
I am like a cross between a counselor and personal trainer for your inner author. I’m also an editing ninja and a creative companion. I’ve been likened to a doula—who holds your hand as you bravely birth your book into the world—and a sherpa, who knows the wild territory of Mount Authorship and helps you summit in style.
As your book coach, I:
Offer sustained nurturing, accountability, guidance, and pro support
Help you clarify your vision to anchor your purpose and rocket-fuel your motivation
Believe in you, your capacity to create, and your ability to succeed
Help you get unstuck and prevent you from getting stuck in the first place
Help you navigate the whole writing process from idea inception to editing
Reduce your risk of failing, procrastinating or quitting (typical of lone authors sans support)
Offer concrete and specific support for your book’s organization, ideas and story development, effective writing strategy use, style, voice and language choice + much more
Offer real-time draft feedback to help you shape your writing to fully align with your vision
Help you do less trial + error and more focused, engaged creation
Create and commit to a sane writing plan that works with your life and actually feels good
How we work together
I offer book coaching at all stages of your process, including idea conception, drafting, editing, and proposal writing. Below are my current book coaching services.
Book Concept Coaching
Build a solid, successful foundation for your book project
Concept Coaching is for you if you’re in the early stages of the book planning and writing process and want to build a solid foundation for your authorship adventures. You know you need a clear concept and a strong plan for your book to be successful. You want to learn how to organize your ideas into a clear and compelling structure. You want to get solid on your why, so you can be unshakable in your drafting process. You want the help of an expert who can ensure you’re on the right track and set you up for drafting success.
Concept Coaching will help you:
Anchor into your compelling why so you can stay clear and motivated as you step into writing
Get crystal clear on what you are writing (concept), who you are writing for (audience), and how (project) you are going to share your stories and ideas on the page
Get organized and choose the optimal structure for your book, sparing you time and frustration, and creating ease in your writing
Discover how to fit writing a book into your busy life
Get clear on your publishing options so you can craft a plan for your writing journey, knowing what to do when
Work out the inevitable “Who am I to write this book?” jitters all authors experience
Develop a working outline and a solid plan for writing your book

The Studio: Group Book Coaching Membership
Accountability, coaching, devoted creative time, structure, support and connection in a small group setting

Your strong presence and attentive listening created a supportive environment in our session. I also greatly appreciate your detailed, clear, and helpful feedback.
