Are the doubt demons standing between you and your writing dreams?

What if you never had to face them alone again?

I’m Book Coach Julie Artz and I know what it’s like to face those doubts and fears alone. It’s awful. And I don’t want that for you. There’s no need to dwell in the agony of stuck-ness, anxiety, and doubt. I know how to overcome them and I can help you too.

Tell me if this sounds like you:


“I can’t do this.
I don’t know how…”

Have you been working on the story of your heart for months or years and know it needs something, but you’re not sure what?

Maybe you even know what needs to happen, but aren’t sure how to do it. 

Are you struggling to get your agent or editor to take on your next project?

Or maybe you’ve got a tight editorial deadline that you’re not sure you can reach. 

Are you confident you’ve done all you can with this revision, but you’re still not getting the response you’d hoped for from agents or editors?

Do you sometimes wonder if you just give up?

What if there’s a way to put the joy back in creating while still making progress on your story?

That’s exactly why I launched my small group book coaching program. No one should have to navigate all this stuff alone and now you don’t have to. I can help identify big-picture craft, structure, and story issues and teach you how to address them in your work. 

I can help you take the needs of the market / readers into consideration while holding true to your voice and your vision for the story. 

I’ve been through just about every up and down possible when it comes to writing, revising, pitching, and even pivoting. And I can help you with strategy, self-care, project management, and accountability every step of the way. 

I can help you bring the joy back into your writing life.

Because it’s going to take every ounce of joy & courage & fire we have to do the work of changing the world.

How a Book Coach Can Help

“Finding a book coach you trust is important for any writer but especially important for memoir writers. Trying to make sense of the past and shape our experiences into a narrative worth reading is vulnerable and hard. As I approach pitching my memoir, I’m confident it’s the best book I was capable of writing at the time because Julie was by my side every step of the way.

Julie speaks the truth with love. She encourages when you’re filled with doubt. She asks the hard questions.

She’s truly everything you want in a book coach: great marketplace awareness, spot-on feedback on the page, and positive energy that makes a writer feel like “yes, I can do this.” Suzette Mullen, Book Coach and author of The Only Way Through is Out (University of Wisconsin Press, February 2024)

Sometimes even the most experienced writers need help with their story.

You deserve a book coach and partner who will help you embrace your story!
