How we can work together
I work with 1:1 clients as a developmental editor or via book coaching or solo writing retreats. Or, if you want to write a non-fiction book related to your business, my Business Book Mentorship is for you.
Some of the big topics I support clients with are:
not knowing where to start with writing your book - I can help you get to the heart of the book that only you can write, after which everything becomes much clearer. We can do this via one-off book coaching sessions, as part of your Business Book Mentorship or, if you have started writing and then got stuck, via editorial feedback.
feeling like you don’t have the time to write your book - I can help you design rhythms, rituals and retreats so that you can ‘flip the switch’ into creative flow whenever you need to, which means you can make the most of the time that you do have (and I can help you find more time too). We can do this this via one-off book coaching sessions, a Business Book Mentorship or a supported Solo Writing Retreat.
not being sure how to make your book as good as it can possibly be - this is where developmental editing and editorial feedback come in (in addition to being a standalone service, you can also access my editorial feedback as part of your Business Book Mentorship).
not knowing how to navigate the rather opaque and cliquey publishing world - we can do this via book coaching sessions or as part of your Business Book Mentorship.
I also run pop-up shorter group programmes throughout the year - the best way to stay in the loop about these is to sign up to my newsletter.
“Working with Sophy was a privilege and a pleasure. She kept me on track with deadlines, all the while supporting me with clarity, empathy and depth of experience.
During the six months I worked with Sophy I wrote the first draft of a book which has now been published.
As I wrote in the acknowledgments, I honestly don’t know if I’d have ever got there without Sophy’s encouragement and expertise.”
Leonie Charlton | Author of the memoir Marram
