Author Coaching

“John Parsons is the person you want guiding your writing process. He was instrumental in laying out an outline with specific deadlines to help reach my goals for finishing the manuscript. He gave me constructive feedback and edits, which I could not have seen from my own perspective – or that of AI. Simply put, John is always a great choice when considering a writing coach! I recommended him without any reservations!”

I listen actively and help define your book’s scope and direction. As you write, I’ll help you set goals and stay on track with them.

Are you stuck? Do you need better writing habits to turn your big ideas into a publishable manuscript? Here’s how I can help:

  • Active listening/mirroring. The ideas for your book are all in there; I’ll help you find them.

  • Creating structure. We’ll work together to create a clear, logical flow—in the form of a concise book outline.

  • Setting goals and staying accountable. As you write each chapter, we’ll set goals*—and stay on track with them.

  • Developmental editing. After you’ve written a chapter, I’ll read it and add comments and recommendations based on our coaching goals.

* SMART Goals:

Specific

Measurable

Attainable

Relevant

Time-bound
