HERE’S THE TRUTH:

You want to write a book…

In fact, you’re excited about your idea and can’t wait for everyone to read it!

Buuuut every time you sit down to write, you can’t figure out how to organize all those great ideas into a cohesive and engaging story.

So what do you do?

You start pantsing…

You know, writing by the seat of your pants, praying to the literary gawds that the words coming out make sense…

But when you look up, all you have is a hodge-podge of scenes and moments and dialogue—but no story.

Cue evil twin…

Whispering all the reasons you’ll never be a “real writer” —leaving you stressing and second-guessing why you ever thought you were good enough to write a book in the first place.

Or maybe you did have a plan…

✔️ You printed all the templates…

✔️ Filled out the character profile questionnaires…

✔️ You listened to all the podcasts…

✔️ Read all the books…

✔️ the articles…

✔️ the appendices…

Only to find thousands of ways to tell your story, yet no idea which solution is best for you.

Now you’re feeling so crushed by information fatigue that you have zero energy left to take the first step…

But you still want to—need to write your book!

You’re ready for change, ready to take action, ready for something to give because your book is the bomb <no, I will not let the 90’s go>

You just need help making it make sense, and cents!

That’s why I’m here to help you define and organize your ideas, so you can clear your mind and learn exactly how to turn those blank pages into a binge-worthy book readers will love 😍.

Psst!

Can you handle a lil’ more truth? Welp, here’s a bit of mine…

Did you solemnly shake your head at that bit about printing all the templates and reading all the books? If so, you’re not alone! Tons of writers feel your pain—including me!

That’s right, that little nugget was an homage to my past self; the one who chose the DIY route and ended up taking 5 years to finish my first novel.

Now, that’s not always a bad thing, especially if you’re learning the storytelling process along the way. It’s just that doing things alone takes time, research, and hella motivation—even if its Ikea-instructions simple.

You could choose to read yet another book about the writing process, sign up for another workshop that’s energizing in the moment, but doesn’t actually move you forward, or fill out new cookie-cutter templates that feel more like “paint by numbers” than writing your dream novel…

Bringing life to the ideas and characters in my head is one of my greatest joys. I’m on a mission to help you find that joy by getting clear on your book idea, so you can write with confidence and clarity.

I’ve done the heavy lifting of researching, studying, and testing the best practices for finishing your book. Now I want to share the framework that’s helped me and writers like yourself, finally reach “The End”.

    “Gwen is such a wealth of knowledge and a jewel to work with. She’s gonna give you 100%, without a doubt!”

    Ivy Ashley, Daddy Issues

  • "Maintained my voice."

    “I loved that Gwen was able to help me see a new side of my story, without stripping the voice from what was already conceived.”

    Nicole Collet, Red: A Love Story

  • "Hopeful going forward."

    I was surprised that there was so much synchronicity between some of my ideas and some of Gwen’s suggestions. Without having much by way of formal training regarding writing, editing and self-publishing, there’s a lot of second guessing that happens even after a project receives positive feedback. I wasn’t sure what to expect. I’ve often avoided mentorship/ consultations before, fearful of having the imposter syndrome confirmed but this was such a wonderful experience that I’m hopeful going forward.
