Over 30 years of experience in journalism, editing, and book coaching.

 Meet Nicole

In a world awash with disinformation, wilful lies and AI-generated slop, I believe that writing a nonfiction book is a quiet form of resistance – standing for truth and promoting human connection and creativity.

My coaching builds on the rigorous training I received from Author Accelerator and the skills and tools I acquired during a long career as a foreign correspondent and editor.

 

Journalism taught me to explore story angles, conduct interviews and research, organize information, and develop a strong narrative to engage with the readers.

 

Structure is one of my strengths. Most nonfiction books start as a tangled mess of ideas in a writer’s mind. I love helping clients pull on these threads, weave them into a powerful narrative, and deploy storytelling to convey their message.

 

I work with socially conscious academics, thought leaders, experts and memoirists who want to share their wisdom with the world in compelling, transformative books. 

 The Impact Framework

For nonfiction writers who believe 
in the transformative power of words

​​Why work with me?

 

Building on Author Accelerator tools, I have developed the Impact Framework to help writers craft a powerful message that resonates with their intended audience. Here are crucial aspects of nonfiction writing that I particularly focus on:

  • Structure: Nonfiction books don't emerge in a writer's mind neatly outlined. Some authors have just the seed of an idea and others have too many ideas. They struggle to choose what to include in their book and what to leave out, and how to organize their manuscript. I love helping writers move from confusion to clear roadmap. 
     

  • Readers:Identifying the target audience and understanding the readers' needs allows writers to craft a message that truly resonates with their target audience. 
     

  • Storytelling:  Human beings respond to stories. Writers can harness the power of stories to boost the impact of the information they convey.  
     

  • Personal growth: I believe writing is a human endeavor. Writing is hard – it involves deep thinking but it is transformative for the author as well as the reader.

I had been working on and off on a manuscript for years and Nicole gave me the push, the organization, and—most importantly—the vision to finally finish. She is a gentle but firm coach, with a sharp editorial eye and deeply thoughtful insights. I can't recommend Nicole highly enough.

Does this sound like you?

You have a powerful story or big idea – but you’re not sure how to turn it into a book that truly matters and reaches the readers who need it.
 

You might be:

  • A scholar, journalist, or expert with an urgent message to share

  • A retired professional with decades of wisdom ready to be shaped into a manuscript

  • A socially conscious thought leader who wants to create impact

  • A writer with too many ideas that you struggle to  organize

  • A writer who wants encouragement, accountability, and a clear writing roadmap.
     

If you see yourself here, you’re in the right place.
