Story Planning.

Story Planning is designed for clients who have a general book idea but need help conceptualizing it before they know which direction to go. The purpose of Story Planning is to distill a book idea into a book plan to prepare you to enter the writing stage with confidence.

Story Planning Overview.

Story Planning is a series of five consultations during which we will create a Story Planning Blueprint for your book.

The Story Planning Blueprint establishes your ideal reader and the purpose statement, hook, outline and chapter summaries of your book.  

After the consultations we discuss the next steps, finding the ideal approach to starting and completing the writing process. If you decide you need a book coach or ghostwriter after the consultations are complete, then we discuss those options. If relevant to your project, the elements of the Story Planning Blueprint can also be used as part of a formal book proposal to submit to publishers before you write your book.
