“I am nearly 50% through the program which I am finding extremely useful! I wasn’t sure how much new I would get out of the course as I have had a lot of coaching and editing. But, like most things in life, I’m constantly discovering how much more I have to learn. I am loving the framework you provide for approaching the work, our clients and the business of book coaching. It makes me feel very anchored. Thank you for putting together such a thoughtful, well-presented course.”
Our CEO Jennie Nash is an evangelist for book coaching.
She believes 1:1 support is the best way for writers to write books that readers will want to read.
After publishing six books with Big 5 publishers and figuring out how to navigate the constantly changing publishing landscape, Jennie taught in UCLA’s Extension Writer’s Program for 10 years, where a colleague asked for help developing a new book and Jennie’s book coaching career was born. Since then, her coaching clients have landed top New York agents; snagged 5- and 6-figure deals from publishers such as Scribner, Simon & Schuster, Penguin, Norton, Ten Speed, and Hachette; hit the New York Times bestseller list; been chosen for the Reese Witherspoon Book Club; and won dozens of national indie book awards.
At Author Accelerator, she guides certified book coaches to run successful businesses themselves, on a mission to give more writers the support they need to succeed.
In this video she shares more about what book coaching is. If you’d like to watch our full About Book Coaching video series before you enroll, you can check that out here.
“Our philosophy stands in opposition to the ‘quick win’ writing service companies that have sprung up on the internet. So many businesses promise writers that they can or should write a book in 90 days or make a bestseller out of their blog posts or game the algorithms to sell books. That’s not what we teach our book coaches to do. Writing good books takes time and having consistent support makes the creative process not only less overwhelming but far more likely to result in a book people want to read.”
When you enroll between October 30 and November 30, your digital gift bag will include:
$150 gift card to Better World Books
An invitation to a New Year New Business Kickoff Party with Jennie Nash in late January 2024
Access to The One-Page Book Coaching Business Plan Challenge, a $99 value!
A copy of Jennie’s Blueprint book in your genre

“I finally have a name for the career I’ve always wanted: book coach! The perfect marriage of storytelling and project management. I’ve always been the type to flood my writing friends with advice and resources, and now I can do it for a living. And is it possible to fall even more in love with books?”
