One-on-One Book Coaching

Lois with the Happy Self- Publisher helped guide me from an idea to a finished product.  I was writing a memoir about the death of my first husband and my journey through the grief process and her experience with the writing process and expertise was crucial at times.  She helped me brainstorm ideas, organize the manuscript and get my thoughts out of my head onto paper. When there were sections that didn’t fit or needed re-organizing she gave me ideas as to where they needed to go along the way. She helped talk me through the difficult emotional highs and lows that I hit during the writing process and was very helpful when I would get stuck and feel like I couldn’t possibly move forward.  Once the manuscript was ready, she walked me through all of the in’s and out’s of the self-publishing process in an easy to follow step-by-step manner.  Her courses are very informative and I loved having the ability to refer back to the videos if I had any questions.  She was also very prompt with answering any questions or concerns that I had throughout the entire process. If you are thinking about writing a book, I HIGHLY recommend using Lois and Happy Self-Publisher as I would have been lost without her!

I had a dream of publishing my own stories. Lois was referred to me through a mutual friend and I’m so glad she did. From our first meeting I could see that helping others achieve their dreams was her passion! She worked with me through every step of the process – copy editing, formats, layouts, and contacts. I am now officially a published author with a great deal of thanks due to Lois at Happy Self Publisher. I’m excited to continue our relationship with the books to follow.

After considerable discussion about my idea for writing the story, I made a decision to go forward. I began working with Lois immediately to get some idea about how I should do this. From the beginning, she gave me valuable instructions, encouragement, and advice on how to approach my goal. Lois and I met regularly by telephone and occasionally in person. Since this was my first book, she made the blueprint and the steps involved clear and in a way that I was able to understand.  I  began writing in the late summer of 2018 with the goal of completing it within a year. During this time, I received excellent coaching and encouragement as to how to make this book interesting. Lois provided innovative ideas as to how the book would tell the story about how this man endured a devastating disease with compassion and love for those surrounding him. The success of this experience was due solely to having Lois Hoffman as my coach and publisher. This journey has compelled me to write a second book which I’m now beginning with Lois.

I had the joy of working with a book coach, Lois Hoffman, who was committed to my success. She gently prodded and nudged me towards what I said were my goals. Her enthusiasm and encouragement infused me with confidence. Lois held my hand every step of the way until I held my 1st book, Embracing Autumn, in my hand. If you are ready to write a book, don’t travel the road alone. Lois Hoffman will be your ready companion until you are finally a published author!
