Welcome

Is your analytical brain preventing you from writing characters with depth?

You’re dying to write a thriller, and you’ve got a killer plot, but your characters aren’t cutting it. I get it, you’re more of a number’s person. Emotions aren’t your thing. For years I was like that too, but then I found the clues and finally solved the mystery. Let me help you create characters readers will die for.

Fyodor Dostoyevsky was an engineer and then wrote Crime and Punishment

I have no way of knowing if you’re capable of writing one of the greatest works of literature like Dostoyevsky
or a book that still has relevance long after it was written like Lee,
But you’ll never know until you try.

You don’t have to quit your day job to write your novel; but you may want to.

    Nancy is an Author Accelerator Certified Book Coach.

    As an Author Accelerator certified book coach, my specialty is helping writers who have dreamed of being an author but have commitments that have up to this point taken precedence. As a writer who learned the craft of writing while holding a day job, I struggled for years to find the time and the right technique to plan and write the novel I was meant to write. Now that I’ve found it, I want to share it with other aspiring writers.
