What You’ll Get as a Member
Kicking off the Club
This is the first group session where all founder members have a chance to meet each other and share their thoughts on what would be useful for them and what they would like to see in the club. It will also be a chance for Sarah to share information about planned future resources and sessions.
Live Q&A Group Calls with Sarah
Get direct answers to your questions once a month during these group calls so that everyone can benefit from the answer you receive. These calls will be recorded so they build into a resource bank for you to refer back to and for future members to utilise.
Accountability & Motivational Group Sessions twice a month
Each 90 mins session begins with a few moments to get you into the frame of mind to write. Then follows 1 hour of writing time where we keep our videos on so that we can see each other, just as we would if we were all sitting around a table together.
We finish the session with each person briefing sharing what they want to achieve in the following two weeks before the next session, giving you the all-important accountability and time to be successful in your writing journey.
Each month new material will be added
As the club grows and develops more resources will be added each month. There will be group sessions if you need:
- Help and resources if you are at the beginning of your writing journey
- Feedback and help taking steps towards publishing your book
- Advice and ideas if you need help promoting your newly published book
I came to Sarah as a complete novice in this field and she guided and nurtured my writing and publishing ambitions with professionalism and calmness.
My book, Work Your Quirks, would not have seen the light of day without Goldcrest Books and of course Sarah at the helm. If you are looking for someone who has the patience of a saint, yet a strong will to coach you to focus on getting your book published, Sarah is the go-to person.
