Addicts to Authors
Turn your recovery journey into a book that helps someone else feel less alone — and creates joy from your hardships.
I work with people in recovery who feel called to share their journey. The only problem is they lack confidence in their ability to write, or they don’t know where to start. Whether your interest is fiction or nonfiction, my Addicts to Authors writing and book-coaching programs give you story coaching and writing instruction so you can turn your recovery into a blessing for others.
- Do you want to create joy from your past hardships and turn your experience into a blessing for others?
- Have you been told you should write a book based on your story?
- Are you drawn to telling your truth through fiction or nonfiction, but worried you lack the skill, motivation, or material to do it?
My Addicts to Authors writing program can help.
Imagine receiving an email that says…
That’s the kind of impact your story can have. We are strong people with brave stories, and the message deserves to be carried.
How we’ll work together
Through one-on-one coaching, we’ll find the story inside your experience and shape it into a fiction or nonfiction book (including addiction memoir). You’ll get the same craft instruction, accountability, and inline feedback as my other coaching clients, plus a coach who understands the sober lifestyle from the inside. I’ve been sober since 2004, and I believe in the power of story to create joy from hardship, quiet fear, and end isolation.
I also teach a journaling method called Writing the W.A.V.E.S.© (Writing the Way to Acceptance, Validation, and Empowerment through our Stories) that’s especially powerful for mining recovery experiences for the good stuff and building a consistent writing practice.
