We’ve been working behind the scenes to find better ways to serve the brilliant authors in this community, so we’re offering something awesome for both free and premium tiers. 1. For premium members: We’re opening up 15-minute 1:1 calls with one of our experts—a quick, focused session to get clarity, feedback, or direction on whatever you’re working on. You’ll be able to book times with myself (digital marketing expert), @Sarah Bean (Marketing expert) and @Elissa Graeser (production and publishing expert) Together, we’ve worked with 100s of authors on their book launches, and these focused sessions will help you answer any questions you may have. You’ll be seeing these appointments populate in the Skool community calendar soon. Only rules are - 1 per person, per month. And it’s on a first-come, first serve basis. 2. For ALL members (including free members!) I’ll be hosting a live training for our entire community on how to make sure you’re doing everything you should be to be found online. I’ll share key marketing strategies for online platforms, and show you the technical setup required to rank on search engines, and be sure your social media channels are optimized. This is scheduled for Monday, February 9th @ 7pm ET/ 4pm PST (You can find the link to join on the calendar tab) Let me know in the comments if you have any questions. Look forward to to seeing you all soon!

Some writers struggle because nothing is coming. Others struggle because too much is coming. Both can feel paralyzing in different ways — one feels empty, the other feels chaotic. This question isn’t about productivity, it’s about what kind of weight creativity is putting on you right now. If you want a slightly more poetic version Some of us face silence. Some of us face noise. Both can stop the pen. Are you blocked by emptiness, or overwhelmed by abundance?

Writing, editing, tech, confidence, marketing, choosing a direction — all fair game. Share yours below.

The inspiration to write a book that will touch other lives and hearts is an amazing gift. Even so, it takes countless hours of dedication and discipline. Indie authors like you and I don't often gain great monetary wealth from our passion, and we must wear many hats along the way to turn out an excellent book. The blessings of being able to hone our skills as writers go far beyond mere monetary gain, however, as we are given the great opportunity to reach the world with something that is uniquely ours to give, and to see others benefit from this gift. I am new on here, just joined today, but I am glad to be a part of this community. Just know that you are not alone in your struggles to turn out excellent quality work. I share in your passion... and in your pain. Hoping to make a few good friends on here, so hit me up and let's chat... Your friend, Gerard.
