From stuck to unstoppable: spend one intensive day with me and leave with a restructured plan, fresh momentum, and actual progress on your manuscript.
You were on fire when you started your book — brilliant ideas, excitement, and a clear vision. But now? You’re staring at a half-finished manuscript, drowning in doubt, and wondering if you’ll ever finish.
Maybe you’re lost in the messy middle, unsure how to tie it all together. Maybe you’ve rewritten the first chapter fourteen times and still hate it. Maybe you’ve just stopped opening the document because every time you do, you feel overwhelmed.
Perhaps you just need more time… even though you’ve been stuck like this for months or years.
You don’t need more time. You need a breakthrough.
That’s exactly what the VIP Book Breakthrough Day delivers.
You don’t have a talent problem. You don’t have a skill problem. You probably don’t even have a time problem.
You have a clarity problem: you can’t see what your book needs because you’re too close to it.
You have a structure problem: something about how your book is organised isn’t working, but you can’t figure out what.
You have a confidence problem: you’ve lost faith in your idea and your ability to finish this thing.
And you have a momentum problem: the longer you avoid it, the harder it gets to start again.
What happens if you don’t fix this:
❌ Your manuscript sits there for another 6 months (or 6 years) gathering digital dust
❌ You feel guilty and ashamed every time someone asks “how’s the book going?”
❌ You waste the work you’ve already done because you abandon it entirely
❌ You miss out on all the opportunities that come from being a published author
❌ You never get to experience the satisfaction of holding your finished book
❌ Your readers – the people who NEED what you have to say – never get to read it
What you actually need:
✓ Someone with experience who can see what your book needs (because you can’t see it anymore)
✓ A day of focused, intensive work to sort out the structural issues and get unstuck
✓ Accountability to actually DO the work instead of just thinking about doing the work
✓ Fresh eyes on your manuscript to tell you what’s working and what’s not
✓ A clear, realistic plan for finishing this book once and for all
✓ Your confidence and enthusiasm back
That’s exactly what the VIP Book Breakthrough Day gives you.
How it works:
THREE WEEKS BEFORE our VIP Day:
You complete a detailed questionnaire about:
Your book and where you’re stuck
What you’ve tried so far and why it didn’t work
Your writing process and what derails you
Your goals for the book and your timeline
You upload your manuscript (however messy or incomplete it is) to a private Google Drive folder – I need to see what we’re working with, warts and all.
You get Telegram access to me so you can ask questions as you’re filling in the questionnaire.
I send you a surprise in the post because who doesn’t love getting mail?
TWO WEEKS BEFORE our VIP Day:
I read your questionnaire and manuscript thoroughly. I’m looking at structure, flow, clarity, voice, what’s working and what’s not.
I contact you to clarify anything from your answers or to dig deeper into specific issues.
I customise the VIP Day framework to your specific circumstances – this isn’t a cookie-cutter process.
THE VIP DAY (7 intensive hours):
We work together on Zoom. This is how a typical day flows (though I adapt it based on what you need):
9:00-10:30am – STRATEGY SESSION 1: Diagnosis
We dig into:
Your Big Idea and whether your current structure actually serves it
Where you’re stuck and why
What’s working in what you’ve written so far
What needs to change
Your specific obstacles and challenges (structural, mindset, or both)
I set you homework for the next session. This might be any of the following (or something different):
Redrafting a chapter
Creating or revising your reader journey
Restructuring your outline
Mindset work to address your resistance
Writing a new introduction or conclusion
10:30-11:45am – WRITING SESSION 1: You Do The Work
You go offline (or stay on if you prefer) and work on the homework.
Meanwhile, I conduct a high-level structural review of your manuscript:
Chapter order and flow
Narrative structure and thread
How you’re starting and finishing (both the book and individual chapters)
What’s missing or needs expanding
11:45am-12:30pm – Check-In
We review what you’ve done and I give you immediate feedback before lunch.
12:30-1:30pm – LUNCH BREAK
Go eat. Stretch. Walk around. Let your brain rest.
1:00-2:30pm – STRATEGY SESSION 2: The Fix
We go through my structural review together and figure out:
What needs to be moved, cut, expanded, or rewritten
How to fix the flow issues
What your strongest chapters are and how to make the weaker ones match that quality
Where to focus your energy for the second writing session
We outline in detail what you’re going to write/rewrite in the next session.
2:30-4:00pm – WRITING SESSION 2: More Work
You write or rewrite based on what we’ve mapped out.
I create your Finishing and Publishing Timeline – a step-by-step roadmap showing exactly what needs to happen between now and publication, with realistic deadlines.
I’m available via Zoom or Telegram for questions, cheerleading, or arse-kicking as you write.
4:00-5:30pm – STRATEGY SESSION 3: What Happens Next
We celebrate what you’ve accomplished today (because you WILL have made real progress).
Then we look at next steps:
Review the Finishing and Publishing Timeline together
Adjust it to fit your actual life and schedule
Set concrete targets for the next 30 days
Answer any questions about what you wrote today
Answer any questions about finishing and publishing your book
Plan your momentum strategy so you don’t lose steam
Wrap up feeling clear, excited, and ready to finish your brilliant book.
AFTER THE VIP DAY:
All recordings and notes are uploaded to your private Google Drive folder – yours to keep forever.
I send you:
My written notes from the day
Your Finishing and Publishing Timeline
Your Get Your Book Out There Checklist
Any other resources or templates that came up during our sessions
For 30 days you have:
Daily/weekly accountability nudges from me via Telegram/email (depending on what you need)
Access to me for questions and support as you implement what we worked on
Someone in your corner who believes in your book and won’t let you quit (to be fair, I’ll be in your corner and believing in your book forever)
ONE MONTH LATER:
We have a 45-minute follow-up call where you:
Show me your progress
Ask any questions that have come up
Get unstuck if you’ve hit any new snags
Celebrate how far you’ve come
What you leave with:
✅ Real clarity on your book’s structure: you know what goes where and why
✅ A significant chunk of writing done: you’re not leaving with just a plan, you’re leaving with actual progress on your manuscript
✅ Confidence in your book again: you remember why you started this and you’re excited to finish it
✅ All the recordings, notes, and resources: everything we created together, yours to keep forever
✅ Your personalised Finishing and Publishing Timeline: a step-by-step roadmap from where you are now to holding your published book in your hands
✅ 30 days of ongoing support, accountability, cheerleading, and access to me so you don’t lose momentum
✅ A 45-minute follow-up call to keep you on track and answer questions that come up
✅ A clear understanding of what was blocking you and how to avoid those blocks in future
Kevin had been sitting on his half-finished book for TWO YEARS. We spent a VIP Day together, sorted out his confusion, restructured the book so it worked, and created a plan he could stick to.
Six months later, his book was published and became an Amazon business bestseller in just three weeks.
Have a manuscript that’s partially written but you’re stuck and can’t move forward
Finished a draft but it’s a mess and you don’t know how to fix it
Keep rewriting the same sections over and over without making progress
Can’t figure out how to structure your book so it flows properly
Have lost confidence in your idea and need someone to help you see it clearly
Need a big push and focused time to get unstuck
Want intensive support but can’t commit to 3 months of coaching
Are DONE with your book haunting you and ready to finish it
This VIP Day is NOT for you if:
You haven’t started writing yet (choose Book Breakthrough: Unlocked instead)
You’re happily writing away with no structural issues (keep going!)
You want someone to write the book for you (that’s ghostwriting, not coaching)
You’re writing fiction (I work exclusively with nonfiction)
You need ongoing weekly support (the 3-month Creative Book Coaching Programme is better for you)
Why one intensive day instead of spreading it out?
Because momentum matters, but it’s not either-or.
Some of my clients work really well in my longer coaching programmes. But some want to spend deep time in a burst of work that sets them up for the longer haul.
One intensive day means:
Focused, uninterrupted time to solve your problems and make real progress
Immediate results: you leave with tangible work done, not just ideas
Deep work: we go deep into your manuscript and focus on one or two key areas that’ll unlock the rest of your book
Breakthrough moments: intensive work often creates multiple breakthroughs in a short space of time
Plus, you get 30 days of follow-up support to maintain momentum, so you’re not left hanging.
Investment: £5,000 +VAT

Full 7-hour intensive VIP Day with me (four strategy sessions + two writing sessions)
All recordings, notes, and resources to keep forever

45-minute follow-up call one month later
Payment plans available:

Think about how long your manuscript has been sitting there incomplete. How much is it worth to you to actually finish it?
FAQs
When can we schedule the VIP Day? I offer only six VIP Day slots per year, no more than one per month, and I never schedule sessions in December. Once you apply and we agree to work together, you’ll choose your preferred date at least 3 weeks in advance.
What if my manuscript is a total mess? Perfect. That’s exactly what we’re fixing. I’ve seen messy manuscripts before; it doesn’t faze me (and they’re never as messy as you think).
What if I haven’t finished my first draft? That’s fine. We can work on whatever stage you’re at – whether that’s restructuring what you have, finishing the draft, or fixing a completed manuscript.
Can I work on multiple chapters during the writing sessions? We’ll focus on whatever will give you the most progress and biggest breakthrough. Sometimes that’s one chapter done really well, sometimes it’s fixing several smaller sections. We’ll figure out the best approach on the day and I’ll already have a good idea of what needs the most work.
What happens if I can’t make a 7-hour day work? The VIP Day is designed as an intensive, so I don’t split it across multiple days. If you genuinely can’t commit to 7 hours in one day, the 3-month Creative Book Coaching Programme with weekly 90-minute calls might suit you better. (Caveat: if time zones are a problem, we can look at splitting the day in two.)
Will you tell me if my book is rubbish? I’ll tell you honestly if there are structural or clarity issues, but in 15 years of doing this, I’ve never met a book idea that was genuinely rubbish. Usually it just needs the right structure, clarity, or focus. That’s what we’ll create together.
What if I need more support after the 30 days? We have the 45-minute follow-up call, then you can book another VIP Day, or move into the 3-month Creative Book Coaching Programme for ongoing weekly support.
Is there a recording? Yes, all strategy sessions are recorded and you’ll have access to download them within 24 hours.
Can we do an in-person day? Yes! While most VIP Days happen virtually, I’m happy to travel for in-person sessions, just let me know where you are. Travel and accommodation costs apply, but you’ll get a bonus: I’ll take you out for a celebratory dinner afterward!
Are there refunds? Due to the bespoke nature of the VIP Day and the extensive preparation involved, I don’t offer refunds. However, I do guarantee this: you will leave with clarity, tangible progress, and a clear plan to finish your book. If you don’t feel you’ve achieved that by the end of our day together, we’ll schedule a follow-up session to make it right.
How to apply:
VIP Days are limited to six per year, no more than one per month.

You book and pay (or set up your payment plan)

VIP Day happens and you make breakthrough progress on your book
