Do You Need a Writing Coach?

from The Writing Podcast Hosted by Melissa Parks and Dave Goetz

"Book coach" is a category that for the most part didn't exist several decades ago. There was a literary agent. And the acquisitions editor at the publishing house. Between the two of them, writers found various kinds of help with their manuscript. Today, book coaches help writers with everything from goal setting to developmental editing to building their social media platforms and promoting their books. In this episode, we discuss the duties of an effective book coach and how to set and manage your expectations if you decide to hire one.
