Out of the Shire Book-Coaching Group
This 4-Phase Writing Adventure will ensure YOU get support you need to reach your writing goal.
You can trust Lori to bring you all the hard-earned knowledge and the wealth of experience she gained writing six traditionally published, award-winning books all while balancing a full-time day job, managing a writing/speaking/coaching ministry, teaching weekly women’s Bible study, serving on worship team at church and caring for her husband and family (without losing her mind).
Lori designed this unique group-coaching with you in mind. Her goal is to help you create a writing habit you can maintain without intensive support and to provide you with every assistance to finish your book, craft your proposal, or develop a freelance writing career. Lori has coached over 100 Christian writers. You will receive nuts-and-bolts instruction and quality guidance as a key member of a supportive small group of fellow writers.
This class will be limited to a maximum of ten participants. One makeup class will be scheduled for each of the three-hour workshops and all sessions will be recorded for any participant who has a last-minute conflict.
Don’t let another year pass without giving that book every opportunity to become a reality!
You have a book inside you. Get it on the page, at last! Expert help is here, designed with you in mind!
