Build your Book’s Foundations - Ruth Bullivant Book Coaching

Build Your Book's Foundations

Get clear on your book idea.

An affordable way to get your book started with my coaching.

Is this you?

📗 You have an idea for a book but you don’t know the best way to go about writing it.

📗 You have written pages and pages, but don’t yet feel you have nailed it.

📗 You have too many ideas competing for attention.

📗 You’ve been told to keep writing to find your truest idea but you are going round in circles and getting fed up with the book.

📗 You are stuck.

Would you like to move forward?

You can.

Join me for one hour each week for four weeks to dig deep into my process for getting you unstuck.

You will have work to do in between each call, and we talk it through.

At the end of each session, I move you on to the next stage.

How do I Build my Book's Foundations?

We work on the four cornerstones of any book.

The Why

Why do YOU have to write this book – and why can no-one else do it?

The Who

Exactly WHO is your reader? We are going to watch them buy your book!

The What

WHAT do you want to say? We will define the true essence of the point of your book: the argument you want to make.

The How

HOW will you tackle the actual writing of your book?

At the end of our four sessions, you will know how to answer these four questions in the truest way you can.

Once you know what you need to write, and why, and who you writing for, and how you are going to get it down, you’ve built your book’s foundations.

Then you will stop going in circles, wondering how you should tackle writing it.

Maybe you’ve already started and are beginning to realise just how difficult it is.

You will get clear on who needs to read what you have to say so that you get your book underway.

Write a stronger book

When you know how to express these four things, your work will be stronger and you’ll have a better chance of writing your book through to the end.

You will have a solid foundation for talking about your book to potential publishers and to your readers.

You need to know the answers so you can make the best possible argument for your book when you come to:

📗build a business case for your book through a book proposal to publishers and agents,

📗formulate a marketing plan for getting your book into the hands of readers.

I’ll reply as soon as I’ve read your answers. If I think you are ready for Build your Book’s Foundations, I’ll invite you to a fact finding call on Zoom where you can ask me any questions about how the coaching works.

Currently, I charge half the price of one-to-one coaching for all four live coaching sessions to help you lay the foundations for a great book proposal, and consequently, a great book.

Build your Book’s Foundations helps you to get your book plans off the ground. You will get clear on your motivation and sense of purpose in writing it, who you are writing it for, what your point is and how you will tackle the actual writing of it.

I do not provide feedback on your assignments other than face-to-face on our calls. Unlike one-to-one book coaching, there is no email support for Build your Book’s Foundations in between Calls.

In the Calls, you share your progress and your questions on the Assignments I’ve given you to work on.

When you need:

📗 Deep attention on the developing detail of your book (for example, exactly how will the argument unfold, what precisely should be included or left out, how will you reach your readers, and so on), and

📗 Support as you encounter the trials and tribulations of actually writing it,

that is when you need the ongoing support of tailored one-to-one book coaching.
