Author Mentoring with Alice Grist
"Alice’s guidance and support whilst breathing life into writing my new book has been invaluable. The personal support and understanding given provided a safe structure to express fears that were arising and kept me motivated and excited about what we were creating together. Writing can be a lonely place and knowing that I had Alice holding a brilliant shining thread that I could hold onto and weave into my journey was pure magic. I am looking forward to our next adventure together!" Georgie Catling (Author, Womb Oracle, and Creatrix of the Yoni Oracle Cards)
'Do you have a book within waiting to be born? Perhaps it's been sitting with you a while and you can't quite find a way to put pen to paper. Or maybe you have started, but become lost to the overwhelming process and options. It may be that you need guidance on the publishing industry, editing, or how to find an agent... It could be that you simply need some feedback from someone who has been there and bought quite a few t-shirts!
I have been asked by so many talented people, at various stages of their book writing process, on how to birth their book into the world. Having written, edited and published seven of my own books, through various routes (indie publisher, self-published, major London office on the Thames style publisher), I know a thing or two.
I have also been a publisher of other people's work (Soul Rocks Books John Hunt Publishing), and I've marketed, proofread and edited many people's beloved book babies. I've had articles published across a range of media and had my most recent book featured on the front page as the lead article in You magazine. Like I said, I know a thing or two...
I know about books. I know about writers block, I know about the anxiety of putting your thoughts to paper, I know that the whole thing can feel overwhelming and stop you in your tracks. I know the highs and lows, the imposter syndrome and the relentless drive to create, and I keep on writing prolifically, and with a great deal of success. I can talk you through what it takes, who you need (and don't need) and what really matters. I can guide you in the maze of self marketing, and assist you to chop up your precious work in the editing stage to help the diamonds of wisdom and wording shine. I can help you create a killer proposal and find the right publishers to fit your work.
I am your book's midwife and new best friend. I absolutely believe in you, your work, and the doors your book can open for you, your message and your business.
I am opening my doors to mentoring packages and editorial relationships with people looking to birth their books, my preference is non-fiction, shot through with personal experience aimed at any of the following; wellness, creativity, personal growth, motherhood, personal empowerment and spirituality. No matter what stage you find yourself at, I can hold your hand, guide you onto the right path, organise the chaos and be a devoted cheerleader!
Interested? Let's talk. Message me to discuss your needs, book progress and what you want, we will set up a free 15 minute exploration session by Zoom. If you love what I have to say, we can set up further mentoring sessions that fit your working style!
