“Brette was a visionary for my book. She molded the concept, practically read my mind for the content, and organized everything I wanted to convey. Her writing is gorgeous and her analytical skills impressive. She was able to write in my voice, but better! I so enjoyed working with her!”

“Brette is 50% artist, 50% coach, and 100% the reason why I have a publishable book that I am proud of. At the beginning of working with her, I had an idea and a desire to write a book; she helped me bring that tiny seed into full bloom with her structural feedback, detailed suggestions, and invaluable insights into the book world. Her experience as an author and writer are clear from her long list of accomplishments, but what may not be as easily quantified is her perfectly-timed pep talks, loving candor, and raw skill. I am incredibly grateful for her influence and her guidance through writing—what will always be—my first book. As I inevitably go on to write a second book, I will carry with me the lessons and care from the experience of working with her, and I’m already looking forward to working with her again one day.”

“I came to Brette with a million book ideas running through my head. I knew I wanted to write and publish  a book to get my message out into the world but I had so many ideas I really didn’t know where to start or what  book idea to write first. Brette listened to me and gave me an action plan to help get all of my ideas out of my head and onto paper. She then helped sift through my ideas to find a common theme and helped me figure out a cohesive message for my first book.

I am a person who gets completely in my head too often and easily second guess myself and the direction I’m going. Time and time again Brette came to my rescue to keep my head straight and to stay in line with my goals. She helped guide me into my book outline. And from there I asked her if she thought it was possible to go from the outline we had created to being able to put together a full book proposal for my dream editor in 4 weeks.

I knew the timeline was tight, I wanted to push myself and meet it, but I also had a lot of self doubt on whether or not I could pull it off. Brette again had the confidence that we could do this if I wanted and made the time to write. I had to get the content out but she could work her editing magic to polish it up. Brette’s skills are AMAZING she could take my thoughts and words and bring them new life. Her talents constructed my writing so it could be its best. Her comments and editing skills helped articulate my thoughts into the best words for my reader to understand and receive the most value. Together we completed a beautifully polished proposal that I am incredibly proud of! In less than 3 months time Brette took me from my ideas, to having a full book completely outlined with two finished chapters out of 12, and a perfect proposal to present to publishers and literary agents, I can’t thank Brette enough for not only her skills but her belief in me to get me this far on my book writing journey.
If you have a dream to become a published author, Brette is your person to help bring that dream to life with her book coaching and editing skills you can’t go wrong!”
