Many people feel writing is a lonely journey and even that it ‘should’ be. I disagree. In my experience, writing is a team sport. Every author needs unstinting support from the start to write a brilliant book.
In fact, writing alone is a mistake, and there’s a parallel in the tech industry to prove it—think of inventors working alone for years on a new gadget, only to unveil it and discover:
- it needs major changes to be useful,
- no one wants it,
- someone else has beaten them to it.
Writing a book is no different—it’s an iterative process. We draft, we test, we adjust. In this testing process, feedback is invaluable, and it’s what makes a good book truly brilliant. In fact, feedback is what sharpens any idea—whether in tech or writing—until it’s ready to make its mark.
I remember as a cub journo, my mentor Amanda giving me guidance that was such a relief. She could improve my whole article with a single suggestion. That’s the power of feedback—it clears the way forward, making everything more focused and impactful.
In my Brain to Book program, you get feedback from me based on my decades of experience as a professional writer and author. I work with you one-on-one to make sure your ideas are clear, well-structured, and relevant to your readers.
We work together to ensure you’re writing persuasively and entertainingly.
The program is personalized—there’s no one-size-fits-all approach. You’re not just one of a crowd, struggling to interpret my advice. I’m right there with you, dedicating hours to your book, from our fortnightly one-on-one mentoring sessions to the detailed preparation I put into each one.
Plus, my experienced book editor, Jess, reviews your work and gives additional feedback, so you’re never left to figure things out alone.
In the end, writing doesn’t have to be lonely. With the right team, it becomes a journey you can enjoy and grow from—while producing the best book possible.
