Writer's Coaching

Ready to take your book from dream to reality?
Peapod Publishing offers personalized writer's coaching
for both beginning and established writers.

We work with you in a one-on-one session—by phone or in person—and focus very strategically on your book, following the 7-step process to take your book from dream to reality.

"Once I decided to write my book, I really didn't know where to start. Diana and I scheduled a coaching session by phone. This was great considering I live in South Africa and she lives in the States. This session was invaluable to me and in fact 6 months after the phone call my book was ready for editing. I can honestly say that without Diana's help I'd still be trying to establish some sort of order in my book."

--Kelly Horton, Durban, South Africa, author, Kelly's Song

Today Kelly's book is published and available to the world. If that's something you've dreamed of--writing and publishing your book--you can do it, too. Just like Kelly. Or like this author in Europe:

"I knew I had a book in me, but as a mother of 4 living in a foreign country, the obstacles seemed too great. How would I find the time? How could I do the research? More significantly, 'Where do I start?' After my very first coaching session with Diana via Skype, my fears were calmed and I came away not only feeling 'I want to do this' but 'I can do this.' Diana provided the personal encouragement I needed as well as the professional know-how and practical steps to get started. I'm on my way!"

--RS, Germany

Can personalized writer's coaching help you write the book you've always dreamed of writing?

"Writing a book was something I only thought about (for years and years), until I took Diana's workshop on How to Write a Book. I was so inspired by her tips and easy guidelines that I decided to meet regularly with her for coaching sessions. As a result, all the awesome material I've been storing in my brain for years is now actually being translated into my pen and onto the page. Now I'm actually going to publish an amazing book called Move Your Assets...From the Chair, Not the Bank! If you have an idea for a book, Diana can help you turn it into a reality."

No matter where you are in the process--whether a simple idea or a half-finished manuscript--we can help you get your book on paper, too. In your personalized coaching session, everything we cover is focused on you. Fiction or non-fiction...adult or children's books. We can meet just one time, once a month, or whatever works for you. By phone, Skype, or in person.

"Having Diana coach me through my children's book series has been a wise investment. She understands the publishing industry and how to write a book from beginning to end. Over and over her confident motivating manner inspired me to meet my next goal. She guides you through the book writing process and relays valuable feedback. Diana's coaching style is experience and commitment."

--LM, Pittsburgh

This author has completed 5 children's books in her series and is finishing up a parent's manual right now--all in less than 18 months. You can do it, too!

"As a new author, I felt I needed guidance and a push in the right direction to get me started on the writing process. Working with Diana gave me that push as well as strong encouragement. We met just twice and I'm now up to chapter 9 of my book."

--KB, Orlando
