Still unsure if you need a coach?



A 2014 survey of over 9000 current and aspiring authors produced the following results:

Of the 9000 respondents approximately 58% had actually completed a manuscript. 6000 of the 9000 respondents were only "aspiring" authors and of them only 36.7% had completed a manuscript. Only 23% of all the survey respondents (who had completed their manuscript) had actually published their first book. If we look at those figures we can see that with a roughly 60% chance of getting to the stage of completing a manuscript you then have less than a one in four chance of continuing and publishing it.





Although there may be various reasons why other writers don't publish their books, surely you want to have the best chance to beat those odds?


Read this book to determine if you want a writing coach, how a coach can help you and how to find one that suits your needs.
