Hello Author Friends,
Imagine two futures come early February 2026...
- Future A — A future in which you have spent the past three months accelerating your author business
- Future B — A future in which you didn’t do anything different in the previous three months than you've always done
If Future A is looking good to you, I invite you to consider joining my new program:
From Published to Profitable: The Author’s Business Accelerator
- Start 2026 moving from published author to profitable entrepreneur.

"It's good to feel a bit uneasy, hesitant, uncomfortable before committing to coaching. Noone NEEDS coaching.
It is a commitment that brings you to your edge―the next thing, especially something big."―Steve Chandler
