Book coaching services
Last updated:
A nonfiction book coach helps you turn expertise or a life story into a finished, published book by keeping you clear, on schedule, and making good publishing decisions. At Defining Moments Press, book coaching runs for one year inside the Author Training done-with-you package.
A nonfiction writing coach helps you plan, write, and finish the book, then make it work for you after launch.
Book coaching at Defining Moments Press pairs one year of coaching with an 8-week course to write your book, ongoing training and support, formatting, book design, book marketing, a full launch to bestseller, and a media and podcast list to promote the finished book.
The coaching is led by a team founded by Melanie Warner, a number one international bestselling author and self-publishing expert who has published magazines, newspapers, and books for over 25 years.
Pricing
Book writing coach fees vary by provider, by how long support lasts, and by how much is included beyond coaching, such as design, formatting, or launch. Compare what each package delivers rather than the headline price alone. A coach who also handles publishing replaces several separate hires.
The Author Training coaching package price is not published; it is shared on a free discovery call. For reference, the self-guided Author Blueprint 8-week challenge is listed at one payment of $1,997. The company says there are no hidden fees.
