I know what it feels like to have a burning desire to write a book but feel completely lost about the process.
Does this sound like you?
Having multiple story ideas bouncing around in your brain and feeling stuck on which one to move forward with
Comparing yourself to other writers and thinking, why bother? There are already hundreds of similar books out there
Worrying about finding the time to write when you have a hundred other things on your to-do list
Stressing about how much you DON’T KNOW. Feeling like you need a freakin’ MFA level of knowledge to start
Wondering how much work to do before you write: plot? Not plot? Map out the structure, or just start writing?
Feeling lost about how to structure your book. Even if you have ideas for the plot, how the heck do you turn that into a full-length book?
If you have a desire to write a book, that desire is there for a reason. It’s time to embrace your inner writer and finally start writing your novel.

Imagine…
Feeling like your writing goals aren’t just possible, they’re inevitable
Seeing your ideas come to life on the page – the characters, setting, ideas, and words exactly the way you hoped they would
Actually being excited to write, like you can’t wait to work on your manuscript and see what your characters do next
Seeing your writing continually improve as you learn new skills and sharpen your craft
Being productive and focused, spending time on your writing without sacrificing time with family or friends, work, rest, etc.
Feeling supported in your writing journey, like your community is invested in your success and cheering you on
Writing the first chapter of your novel in just 8 weeks!

It depends! The Idea to Book course is self-paced, which means you can take your time going through the modules and rewatch the lessons as many times as needed. It’s up to you how active you are in the Discord group and whether you attend the office hours and ask for support when needed.
As far as actually writing your book, that depends too. I believe in writing quickly and efficiently. This means incorporating writing into your life, not putting your life on hold to write. It will depend on the amount of time you can carve out of your schedule, but you can absolutely a solid first chapter written in four weeks.
-
Yes! On the checkout page, you’ll see an option to add on feedback from me. You’ll receive comments in the manuscript plus a one page editorial letter. Your first chapter will be due to me on May 12, and you’ll receive your feedback by May 31.

That’s fine! There’s no pressure from me or penalty if you don’t finish it. You can keep access to the Idea to Book course after Novel Jumpstart ends, so you can always refer back to the course if you need additional training or motivation.

Hi, I’m Katie Wolf.
I’m a book editor and writing coach, and I help other writers pursue their writing dreams.
I have a degree in English Literature and have always been a voracious reader, but I wasn’t always a writer. I was held back by self-doubt and an overwhelming fear that my writing wouldn’t be good enough.
In other words, I know exactly what it’s like to desperately want to write the book that’s been burning inside you but feel stuck and overwhelmed at the thought of actually writing it.
What if I’m not a good writer?
What if I can’t finish my novel?
How can I let other people read my work?

Real talk:
You can keep yourself small and stay stuck in the mud of believing that your book won’t be special or that it’s not even possible for you to actually write a book. But you know what?
It's a lie.
Your words matter.
And writing a book doesn’t have an agonizing, isolating, arduous process.
Once I realized this, everything changed.
I published my writing in literary journals and online publications like Medium, Thrive Global, Riggwelter, and Magnolia Review. I wrote two books (and am hard at work on a third.) And I signed with a literary agent at CAA, one of the top agencies in the publishing world.
The framework I developed is based on my own journey, but it’s also based on working with dozens of writers as an editor and writing coach.
And now it’s my mission to help you tap into your creative potential and write the best dang book you can possibly write.
