Author Toolkit
Free Tools, Templates, and Video Walkthroughs
Writing a book is a big undertaking! You don’t need to start from scratch when it comes to organizing your writing, editing, and launch.
Enter your information below for complimentary access to the templates I created to navigate the wild and winding path of book publishing—to write and launch three books: Free Time: Lose the Busywork, Love Your Business (Ideapress, March 2022), Pivot: The Only Move That Matters Is Your Next One (Portfolio, Penguin/Random House, Sept. 2016), and Life After College (Running Press, 2011). These templates have been shared and successfully applied by thousands of authors after a generous mention by Seth Godin in 2011 :)
Be sure to check-out this Behind-the-Book Playlist on Spotify too, with episodes on writing, editing, and launching.
