Book & Proposal Coaching

Transform your dissertation, or years of research, into a compelling, publishable book.

This service helps scholars move from ideas to a fully articulated book project with clarity, structure, and a strong scholarly identity. Whether you’re preparing a book proposal, revising a dissertation, or shaping your research into a cohesive narrative, you’ll gain strategic guidance and expert feedback at each step.

What We Focus On

• Core argument development: Clarify the central claim, scholarly contribution, and the book’s “why now.”

• Narrative architecture: Refine structure, chapter flow, and conceptual through-lines.

• Market positioning: Identify comparative titles and define your book’s audience and impact.

• Proposal strategy: Build a competitive proposal with compelling framing and professional polish.

• Translation for broader audiences: Maintain rigor while making your ideas accessible and persuasive.

• Scholarly voice: Preserve your intellectual identity while elevating clarity and authority.

Who This Service is For

Scholars who want to:

• Secure a book contract

• Build tenure-track momentum

• Strengthen their research identity
