I've been publishing books for three decades, and I've somehow always been on the edge of publishing's-next-big-thing. I have an unusual combination of industry + indie experience that I'd like to share with you, along with all sorts of useful resources.

Your Partner in Publishing Success
I help passionate authors with expertise go from 'published but undiscovered' to 'strategically visible' so that they can transform their books into powerful platforms that share their unique knowledge, open new opportunities, and create meaningful connections with their intended readers.
My mission is to make publishing accessible, enjoyable, and rewarding for writers at every stage of their journey. Whether you're penning your first novel or looking to take your established author career to new heights, we’re here to guide, support, and celebrate your success.
About this Website
I'm creating "Everything You Need to Know About Publishing a Book in 2025" as a friendly, comprehensive guide through the exciting but often confusing world of book publishing. This definitive resource will launch in 2025 (with a 2026 edition already in the works!) to help you navigate traditional, self, and hybrid publishing paths with confidence and clarity. From manuscript preparation to marketing strategies, I've designed this site and the accompanying guide to answer all your publishing questions in one accessible place.
What makes my project truly special is its innovative infinite edition concept – the book evolves along with the rapidly changing publishing industry! If you don't find exactly what you're looking for because the content is still developing, simply reach out to me directly with your questions. I'll create custom content addressing your specific publishing challenges and incorporate it into future updates. Think of it as having a personal publishing consultant who's committed to your success as an author, ensuring you always have the most current and practical publishing guidance available.
Work with Me
Navigating the publishing world can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to go it alone. Here’s how I collaborate with authors and publishers to bring their books to life, streamline their publishing processes, and craft a clear path to success.
Getting Started
Most clients begin by booking a discovery call. The call is free with no-obligation, but you will leave with a solid game plan and clear next steps!

My Role and Approach
My goal is to make your publishing journey as smooth and informed as possible. Here’s what you can expect when we work together:
- Publishing Support: My publishing support focuses on teaching through friendly group sessions, clear lessons, and connecting with other authors. We share practical publishing strategies, ways to reach the right readers, and marketing approaches that actually work.
- Done with You: Instead of doing everything for you, I help you develop the skills to handle publishing and marketing yourself on your own, yet I provide technical assistance and continuous feedback and resources. You'll become confident in making publishing decisions and building a lasting career with multiple books.
- Marketing Strategy: Together, we’ll develop a strategy tailored to your goals, budget, and target audience. I’ll provide recommendations, help you plan promotions and offers, and connect you with trusted marketing professionals if you need additional hands-on support.
- Expert Referrals: Within our network of trusted professionals we can refer professional publishing services as needed.
You’ll benefit from expert advisory at every stage, and if your project requires a specialist (e.g., cover design or interior layout), I’ll connect you with the right professional. I also work seamlessly with your team if you already have one in place.
What We Don’t Do
To ensure we’re aligned, here are some things I don’t handle:
- Developmental editing, copyediting, or line editing (beyond final proofreading).
- Providing feedback on your book’s contents or guidance on writing or craft.
- Social media marketing or campaign management.
- Executing marketing strategies on your behalf.
Collaboration Style
I believe in a collaborative approach. You bring the vision; I bring the expertise. Together, we’ll refine your ideas and create a clear, actionable path to achieve your publishing goals.
