Authors need help

 


We all need help sometimes. Unfortunately I'm not licensed to give the type of help most authors need. BUT I can link you to some good people and resources with a proven track record of helping people out. 


If you simply want to hire someone to hold your hand and explain everything while also offering a collection of ala carte services for sure check out Katie Salidas.

I charge flat fee of $35 an hour. Clients can purchase as little or as many hours as they need for coaching. All invoicing is done through Paypal. Coaching hours are purchased and paid for ahead of time.”

If you want to keep the words of the wise on by your side while you're writing, not gonna lie I do this, make sure you snag her book, Write and Edit the Damn Book. This is not just a great guide for writing your book, but also a good guide to use before submitting your book for publishing. IE TFP is much more likely to accept your book if you have followed the guides set down in this book.
