I take a "360" approach to helping emerging authors clarify their message and develop their voice. Together, we co-create a dynamic structure that creates an emotional transformation for readers and motivates them to implement the book's lessons. Titles I've edited and/or consulted on have hit Amazon and NYT bestseller lists as well as Forbes and Inc. Magazine's Recommended Reading lists. I also consult with aspiring authors early in the process to identify if their goals are best-served by writing a book or creating other platform-building content such as a podcast or video series. I enjoy the long-lasting relationships I've had with clients and have worked with several to create articles, pitch documents, talks, and workshops to support their book launches. "I had a vision for my content but no idea how I was going to execute a plan to develop it. Claire was instrumental in helping me build my platform and bring my vision to life. She taught me the art of being methodical and patient to produce quality content that was relatable to my target audience. What I loved about the process is that I never felt intimidated or overwhelmed. She has a way of breaking things down and making me think in an organized way. She is open, willing, and very capable of collaboration, and her teaching methods are inspiring and motivating. Today I am a much better creative and technical writer and it happened organically. If you work with Claire, you will learn a lot about writing but even more about yourself. She has a unique way of helping you build confidence." - Ilene Smith, author of Moving Beyond Trauma
"Claire's care about the finished product was always evident. It's not just another 'job' for her." - Bruce Mason, Writer/Director of Chez Upshaw"Claire helped identify my achievements and then framed them in a way that was both honest and accomplished. She gave me a more empowered sense of my career path. The process changed the way I thought and talked about myself. She is an exceptional listener and an amazing collaborator." - AC, Ghostwriting Client
