Everyone has a book in them.
For some, it’s a confessional that swells and stretches until it feels like their very skin can’t hold it anymore. A memoir, raw, honest, and tender, both a survival guide and a love letter that repulses the right reader and inspires sincere love in the rest.
Some people’s books become systems. Their book is a manual that doesn’t just sit on the shelf but seduces its way into your day-to-day, the kind of book activists and educators and artists highlight, dog-ear, and swear by.
For others, their book is a story that opens a door and never closes it again. A sweeping novel that holds generations, migrations, and history in its arms, so much so that it changes how we understand family itself.
And sometimes, the “book” isn’t a book at all. It’s a Netflix special. A podcast series. A beloved Substack.
Whether it’s three words or three volumes, whispered to yourself or shouted from a stage, you have a book that you want to write this lifetime.
You are navigating a world that taught you to be useful before being whole, and quiet before being true.
I created this book doula/book coach program because there are a lot of gifted writers sitting on beautiful books. Writers who lost themselves in the academic/activist hustle. Writers who have had to grow up and “get real” but are longing for a declaration of your new path. Writers who are first-generation storytellers but know that their ancestors are speaking through them. Writers who are neurodiverse and crave a structure that holds the magic and the mundane.
Writers who deserve to be seen, held, and supported in their quest.
The writer who thinks/obsesses/says things like:
“I’m not a real writer. Not like ________.”
“Shouldn’t I be, like protesting or running for office or something?”
“What if no one cares—or worse, what if they cancel me after they do care?”
“What if my book sells one copy and it’s my mom?”
“What if I’m not good enough?”
And yet even with all of that—you’re here.
You want your book to reveal and remake you.
You want to move with softness and strategy.
You want to start with fire and finish with grace.
The creative process is a sacred and slippery thing. It moves in five non-linear, essential stages. It’s a blend of nectar and knife, sweet and sharp. It will stretch and shape you if you let it.
Your book will also make you more you. Because your book isn’t just a book. It’s a rebirth, a becoming, and a shedding simultaneously.
Let’s make honey from what haunts you.
And let me not be coy about the investment.
I, too, get the ick when programs hide the price until the bottom of a very long sales page after seventeen testimonials, a dozen rainbows, and a partridge in a pear tree is:
VIP Book Coaching is:
$27,775 for six months (if you’re in your starting season)
$55,555 for a full year (if you’re ready to finish strong)*
Let’s zoom out for a second:
The average MFA in Creative Writing? Two to three years and $30k–$80k. Many graduates don’t finish their books. Most are still stuck in the same dance with the heart decaying ghosts they began with.
Publishing is evolving and your process is gold. Traditional and alternative presses expect more polished, professional manuscripts upfront. Authors must be ready to step up.
VIP Book Coaching is professional development that rewires your soul, breaks generational cycles, and keeps you honest with who you said you wanted to be.
Accountability + strategy + liberation = what you need to thrive
This is soul work and skilled labor. This is showing up for the version of you who’s already on the other side of the page, waving.
So if you’ve been telling yourself you’ll write your book “one day,” consider this your soft but serious nudge.
That day can start now. With care. With craft. With company.
Month One: Inspiration : Nectar Collecting
Just like bees seek flowers, writers and artists gather raw material from their environment, inner and outer—ideas, emotions, bodily sensations, memories, research, pop culture tidbits, ancestral murmurings, and more.
Month Two: Organization : Enzymatic Conversion
The nectar must be broken down and refined before it becomes honey, much like a writer or artist organizes their thoughts, drafts outlines, sketches ideas, and gives their raw material structure.
Month Three: Creation : Depositing & Evaporation
The bees place their modified nectar into cells where it undergoes a transformation. This act mirrors the work of writing and drafting your ideas, turning structure into actual words, sentences, paragraphs, pages, and books. Here you focus on drafting your first 2-3 chapters.
Month Four: Revision : Ripening & Storage
Honey is not ready right away—it must thicken and mature. Likewise, your creative work needs revision, refinement, and sometimes time to settle before it’s fully realized. This is a time to chisel an excerpt of your work into with care and intention.
Month Five: Publication : Harvesting & Use
Finally, the honey is capped and stored or harvested. This is akin to publishing, sharing, or distributing your work—releasing your work into the world where it can effectively nourish others. You can choose to self-publish, start submitting to grants/contests/journals/etc., or identify the publishers/editors/agents you want to work with.
Month Five: Publication : Harvesting & Use
You take stock of all you’ve done and all there is to do. What worked, what didn’t. What is coming up over the horizon just for you.
Over 90% of bees are solitary, meaning they exist without a hive. (They are still super social though—they’re often neighbors with other solitary bees, indirectly contribute to an ecosystem via pollination, seek out mates and reproduce, and parent baby bees…) Much like solitary bees, being an independent artist is sometimes solitary, experimental, and lonely, but with support, your honey will always be a precious commodity.
When you feel centered and connected to your truth, without pretense or pretending, even when your truth feels challenging, you make moves.
Your honey pours easy and full.
Flows.
You are inspired to create a story, you plan the story, you write the story, you refine the story, and then you share your story.
fin.
And if one of the stages is blocked because of internalized oppression, feeling unsafe, memories of being unheard, or deep visibility wounds, you will feel chronically uninspired, overwhelmed, deeply anxious, perfectionistic, or afraid of being seen.
Your honey hardening and death-slow.
Stuck.
Here is what “stuck” might look like:
Inspiration
You struggle to stay inspired, consistently getting dragged out by imposter syndrome, self-doubt, and the worst sh*t your mother ever said to you about your worth. Your inner critic is a bully that barely allows you to create anything.
Solution? Turn your inner critic into your friend. VIP Book Coaching will help you listen deeply to your inner jerk with compassion, get clear about what inner safety you need, and transform your mom's 'advice' into the perfect fuel for your creative fire. You’ll create your own art date schedule and become your own muse. You’ll craft a personalized artist statement that says “I know what I’m doing” and use it as a map to stay connected to your inspiration in a sea of creative doubt.
Organization
You struggle to stay organized. You’re super busy, struggling with self-care, and/or experience neurodivergent ways of being that don’t take well to restriction or drudgery. You feel scared of being hemmed in by too much control. You have SO many amazing, intricately creative ideas, but very little to show for it :(
Solution? Organize your beautiful chaos. With VIP Book Coaching, you'll learn how to create ease skillfully and intentionally. You’ll create a 2-5 page book outline with due dates/art dates/and a central thematic question. You’ll create a system that works with your unique brain, turning your brilliant chaos into a well-oiled idea machine. No more lost notes, writing by the seat of your pants, or forgotten brainstorms on your I-Phone—just pure, organized genius.
Creation
You struggle to put pen to paper. There is so much judgement and you don’t feel safe to see you less than shiny parts. You will do EVERYTHING but write (including taking a million workshops). You love an outline, the more intricate the better, but struggle to make time to actually, you know, write.
Solution? Write an excerpt and create your ideal writing schedule. VIP Book coaching will hold you accountable and help you meet the tender truth of your procrastination. You’ll learn to create safety within. You’ll design a flexible reading/writing schedule that feels good to your real life. You’ll transform your beautiful outlines into a strong 25 page book excerpt or first chapter you can submit to contests and journals, turning your 'I’ll write tomorrow' into 'I wrote today and it’s pretty dope.'
Revision
You struggle with refining your art. The Notes app on your phone is abundance personified. You have 34 messy rough drafts of about 122 projects and there’s still more coming down the pipeline. You need to spring clean your writing and reveal your best.
Solution? Edit like a pro. VIP Book Coaching will guide you in curating your creative chaos and identifying your strengths and weaknesses. You’ll perform a manuscript review of your rough draft. You’ll sift through your draft carefully, keep the gems, set due dates, and polish your book until it shines brighter than Rihanna at the Met Gala. Your work will go from rough to ready with ease.
Publication
You struggle with receiving attention and yet deeply crave to be known. You have deep, intersectional possibly ancestral visibility wounds which cause you to shrink and not share your work with the ones who want it. You love to play hide and seek with yourself.
Solution? Share your work without fear. VIP Book Coaching will help you step into the spotlight with care and confidence. You’ll meet your visibility wounds head-on and transform your fear into excitement. You’ll learn to share your work proudly and connect with your core audience that’s been waiting for your brilliance.

Here are some writers who trusted me with the creative work and vision:
“I created a syllabus that I really use. I started to really wrap my brain around what I wanted to do with my writing-- position myself as a contemporary Haitian writer. Hannah made me realize things were possible that I previously had no sense of. Kind of like manifesting, but just for my brain's imagination. These were not things I would allow myself to wonder, before. So, talking through these things and Hannah making sense of them was the most beneficial.”
Lyrica Fils-Aimé: writer, therapist, private practice owner, and non-profit leader and published writer
“Hannah gave me insightful feedback to a manuscript I was working on, providing tangible feedback on both what worked and what needed work in a constructive way that encouraged and inspired me. I especially appreciated our discussions of how writing skills, personal growth, and social issues such as race, gender, equity and politics all intertwine in our creative work. And I love the spark of curiosity Hannah brings to every project- she inspires me to do more, try more!”
Cathy Camper, author of Lowriders in Space graphic novel series
"Hannah is brilliant and creative at nurturing stories! Whether she's designing creative exercises to reach the root of your story, evaluating plot, or offering specific feedback on pages, I always walked away from our writing sessions feeling empowered and excited to return to my projects. Hannah's notes and encouragement were essential for moving beyond the messy draft stage."
Angela Velez, author of Lulu and Milagro’s Search for Clarity.
“Your script expertise allowed me to look at my project in a brand new light! Your episodic and series overviews and recommendations allowed me to be able to move my script into a full project! From the consultation to the full package I felt like my ideas were in safe, capable yet critical hands. Without your words I don’t know where I would be! You’ve made a client for life!”
Dr. Taylor Waits, writer, artist, scholar, and creator of #changerapeculture
"I booked a one hour complimentary session with Hannah, who helped me figure out how to go from point A to point B in terms of the creation process of writing a book. This support is helping me as I lay out a timeline, and figure out what I need in order to support the creative process. Hannah was honest, candid, and made everything clear. As someone who is Black, working class, and non-binary, I felt supported in the container of her session, and appreciated the insights she has given me on the publishing industry. Thank you!"
Astra Najma, writer, astrologer & medium
"Working with Hannah felt like being gently guided back to myself. She held space with deep generosity — never pressuring, always inviting. She gave freely of her time and wisdom, showing up week after week with care, clarity, and a quiet power that made me feel safe enough to try. Hannah's prompts drew inspiration from ancestral and spiritual decks. She coached the soul of the writer, not just the craft…If you’ve lost your writing voice — or never felt you had one — Hannah will help you find it. Not through force, but through quiet, steady presence. Her work is less about producing and more about becoming. And it’s worth every moment."
Leniece Flowers, writer, strategist, & founder of Panther Mamas
“Working with you helped me reclaim my writing life in a way that centered joy. Recording myself reading my work and having the confidence to share that online was a game changer for me. People who had never engaged with my work before became supporters and reached out to ask for more! Sign up today! This is the luxury treatment you don't regret giving yourself and the care your writing life deserves.”
Dr. Tahirah Walker, writer, professor, storyteller

*My 12-month 1:1 VIP Book Coaching is for the writer who wants to finish their entire draft. We begin with one juicy month of inspiration and spiritual permission. Then we spend two months organizing and outlining so your ideas aren’t just floating around like incense smoke. Three months of writing and creating (aka: the book becomes real). You rest for a full month—yes, actual rest—and then we spend three months reviewing the manuscript. The final two months are dedicated towards your publication goals and preparing your book’s first home in the world: audience, pitching, self-publishing if that’s your path, launch timeline, etc.
