Jane is a fabulous coach!
I decided to work with Jane because she came highly recommended by a trusted friend — and I’m so glad I did. Our five hour session was incredible. From the very beginning, it was clear that she’s not just a good listener, but an engaged one. She asked thoughtful, targeted questions about the who, what, where, when, and most importantly, the why behind my memoir.
As a first time author, I had a ton of questions. Jane never made me feel overwhelmed or out of my depth. Even with all her experience guiding successful authors, she made it clear that I’m fully capable of writing this book. She was honest about the realities — the time commitment, the drafting process, self publishing versus traditional publishing, softcover versus hardcover, editing, and everything in between. One of the coolest things she showed me was voice typing in Word. She didn’t sugarcoat the work ahead, but she made it feel achievable and absolutely worth it.
Beyond her expertise, Jane is simply a delight to work with. I left our session feeling informed, supported, and genuinely excited about the journey ahead. I highly recommend Jane to anyone who has already written a book, has started and hasn't completed writing a book and needs a little push, or a novice writer like me. Call her. You'll be very glad you did!
I'm writing my book now and am very excited about the end result. The task is clear, and Jane has wisely advised me to take it one step at a time and not get bogged down with the minutiae. Capture the memories, write them down, and then proceed from there. Voilà!
