Book Coaching Services
Everyone has a story to tell.
The ones that stay unwritten are just waiting for the right conditions, the right support, and the belief that they're worth writing. I'll help you create all three and write a book you're proud of.
[Your book goes here.]
After writing and publishing three of my own books (and counting) — and doing the inner work that every book demands — I'm intimately familiar with what it takes to go from idea to holding your book in your hands.
I've worked with business owners on everything from positioning to planning to publication, and I bring my Quantum Mind Body Coach training (QMBT™) to every engagement, because the hardest part of writing a book is rarely the writing itself.
60-Day Nonfiction Book Coaching
Sixty days. One complete fast draft. Ready for copyediting.
Most writers spend months — sometimes years — circling their book. Rereading old chapters, rewriting the beginning, waiting until it's "good enough" to move forward. This container is designed to break that pattern entirely.
I read your chapters each week — not for typos and grammar, but the bigger picture, and to know your book as well as you do, so I can coach you through what's next.
Using mind-body coaching principles alongside close weekly reading of your manuscript, I stay inside your book's world as you write it. That means when we meet, it’s as if I’ve been sitting beside you the whole time. I know where your narrative is going, where your voice is strongest, and what you’re holding you back.
Sixty days from our book mapping session, you'll have a complete draft in your hands — and you'll know it's ready for a copyeditor.
This is for you if:
You have a clear book idea and you're ready to write — not someday, now
You've been circling this book for too long and need a real deadline with support through all of it
You want someone in your corner who understands the inner experience of writing, not just the craft
You're committed to finishing, and you want a contained, high-momentum experience to get there
This is not for you if:
You don't yet have a clear concept (start with a Book Mapping Session first — see below)
You're looking for a one-stop-shop or open-ended engagement to write your book over a year or more
You're not ready to write consistently every week for 60 days
What's included:
A 90-minute Book Mapping Session at the start to lock in your outline, audience, and positioning — so day one, you're writing, not thinking and planning.
Weekly chapter reading — every chapter you send, I read. Not to line-edit, but to stay fully inside your book and give you directional feedback and suggestions each week. You keep your momentum going.
Weekly written notes on your chapters — what's working, what wants more, where the energy drops. These notes are coaching tools, not markup. By the final week, your manuscript is structurally sound and ready for copyediting.
Quantum mind and body coaching woven throughout — because fear, resistance, and identity shifts come up every time you write something that stretches you. This is the work that transforms you.
Twice-weekly coaching calls — to process what came up in the writing, clear what's in the way, and keep you moving forward. In 60 days, there's no time to let things sit.
Voxer access between sessions — so you're never stuck waiting for the next call.
Investment: $9000
60 days. One complete draft. Copyeditor-ready.
Spots are limited. I work with a small number of clients at a time, so I can read every chapter and show up fully.

“I was hesitant to work with Jacq because I've tried working with many writing coaches, and it's not always a fit. And now, I'm looking forward to starting a fresh new draft of my book with a new angle that she helped me find. It's made all the difference in my attitude and enthusiasm about doing it while taking out the paralyzing overwhelm.
I enjoyed the efficiency, quick reviews, and clear step-by-step instructions to keep a distracted person from straying off course. I've regained the sense that — I can do this. Before, I wasn't so sure...
If you're stuck finding your focus, audience, and your message, or just need to hone it — Jacq WILL get you over the hump. Working with Jacq doesn't feel like working; she makes writing a book feel like a solvable puzzle, showing you the pieces are already there. That's a true gift!”
Client Love
"Something just clicked in me that when I sit down now, all of these details are pouring out in a way that just feels so elegant..."
”Oh my God, the book I'm producing is of such a different caliber."
“The care and attention that you put into your relationships feels so expansive. Like, even you just writing back (after I sent my draft) and being like, I love the energy of this. I'll dive more into it later. Even if that wasn't true*, you know how much an author needs to hear that, and I just thank you so much for that.”
* It IS true! I AM excited for her. I can’t lie (which is why I don’t write fiction ).
Top Questions About Book Coaching
-
Yes — we start there. Your first session is a 90-minute Book Mapping Session where we build your outline, define your audience, and set your writing direction. Day one of the 60 days, you're ready to write.
-
Yes — as we go. Each week I read your chapters and return developmental notes and suggestions: structure, flow, voice, what's working, what wants more. The goal isn't to polish every sentence — it's to keep your manuscript building in the right direction so that when the 60 days are done, you're handing a solid, complete draft to a copyeditor, not a developmental editor.
The plus side of working with me as your coach and developmental editor as you write is that your draft will be in good shape and have a great foundation for copy edits. Meaning your copy editor will need less time (and a lower investment). I have a handful of copy editors I trust, and will facilitate your copy edits if you like.
-
It means your structure is sound, your voice is consistent, and your ideas are fully on the page. A copyeditor refines and polishes — they shouldn't be rebuilding your book. Our 60 days together gets it to that point.
-
I work especially well with books rooted in personal experience, transformation, and hard-won wisdom — the kind of book that requires the author to do real inner work before they can write it. There are certain topics that are misaligned with my values, and in those cases, I'll recommend someone better suited to your project.
