Join the monthly membership + uplevel your writing commitment + success.

Do you have a secret dream to be an author?

If you know you need to write your book but you've been too busy or frazzled or just haven't found the time, this is for you.

The world needs your book, now.

You know it, deep down.

If you're frustrated by not making progress, know you'd do it if you just.somehow.could.make.yourself

then let's delve into the gentle rebellion that has helped so many of my clients write their books.

Book.Write.Now With Me, my community of writers, is for you.

We get together once a week, in a space we carve out of our busy lives and we write.

We support each other, too. Members have grappled with the following, and you may as well:

Not being sure how to write a book - will you get it right? What do you do first?
Your idea is so big you’re overwhelmed + feel like you need to get it all down at once, but that’s just not possible
You just can’t seem to find time or space to write - no matter how much you try
You feel guilty for not writing your book, but every time you schedule in time, you just … don’t
Writing a book seems like a huge slog, a marathon you just can’t face

I'm here to help

If you've had the nudge to write a book, make no mistake, the time for your book is NOW.

What does Book.Write.Now With Me involve?

- A community of fellow writers all working on their books together, so that support is built in
- Twice weekly Zoom calls to keep you accountable + motivated
- A ringside seat as I write my book so that you can see exactly what goes into it, where I use which tools (practical AND mindset), and use them for yourself when you need them

Why Book.Write.Now With Me is for you:

It's time. If you're inspired to write your book, it needs to be done or you'll be creatively constipated. That's not fun for anyone!
Your book's ready to be written. But are you ready to write it? This group will get your book out of your head + on its way into the hands of the people who need it.
If you're not writing, then someone out there who's wished for your exact book will be going without. Would you do that to them?
Life's more fun when you're not a tortured artist/writer.
Books don't write themselves, you have to do it. Now's the time!
Don't die with your music (or words) inside you! Life is unpredictable, don't let it get away from you!
To get out of your own way. If you know that you're the reason you're not writing, then you need to ditch that, stat!

Hear what my authors have to say:

Tamara's book coaching and editing skills boil down to common sense, intelligence, good judgement and humour. She's fun to work with and helps me get out of my own way so I can get on with the writing.

Working with her has been the best decision ever.

Joanne Matthews

The tools you taught made me feel confident in my ability to write. You worked some sort of magic because I have very little resistance to writing now, I use the tools and it is easy for me to write regularly.

Thank you so much, Tamara!

Shauntay Williams

In completing Tamara's program, I can honestly say I have a whole new image of myself as a writer, tools and a framework from which to work on my book that I didn't have before and I am actually writing.

Thank you, Tamara.

What you will get:

The commitment to get your book written

Commit so that you know you'll do it. Making the commitment is half the battle, and you don't have to do it alone.

2 x monthly Q&A calls

Ask your burning questions, get answers + support.

Celebrate wins, commiserate on the hard parts + find a way through, together.

Community of writers

Find your people; other writers who understand what you're doing + who will encourage you!

Mindset upgrade

The key to writing your book is mindset. Get this right + the rest will take care of itself!

Skills for writing

How do you actually do it? What's involved? Find out + set yourself up for a writing life.

Resistance reframe

You know you need to write a book... but you're resistant. Learn why resistance is GOLD + how to harness it for success.

Access to the Book.Write.Now Course

Use the Book.Write.Now Course tools for both practical how-tos + mindset resets.

My quick + easy book system

My super popular set of templates that will give you an easy-to-follow map for ANY non-fiction book you want to write. Fillable PDFs, guidebook + story planner included!

Writing time

Six calls per month are writing accountability calls, to keep us all on track! Log on, say what you're doing, go and write, then check in at the end.

The answer to how to write your book is not:

Letting the guilt + frustration of NOT writing grow bigger + bigger

Scheduling time in your calendar then ignoring it, or finding that life gets in the way

Making it feel like a punishment, or something you have to do

Doing endless research, but not putting words on a page

Beating yourself with the "get it done in 30 days" stick

Getting stuck on your planning + not moving on to the writing

Finding yourself scrolling social media instead of writing

Writing your book is about:

Knowing yourself

So you can get out of your own way

Ditching self-sabotage

Lean in to your resistance to do your best work

Setting up for success

Write prolifically, without self-censorship.

No matter how good your writing intentions are, if you've had an idea for a book hanging around for ages, you won't write your book if you've not yet started.

If that's you, joining a group who are all working together on their own books can make the difference between a book that stays a dream and a book that you actually have in your hand, with your name on the cover.

Why should you learn from me?

I'm a non-fiction writing coach + former editor who specialises in developing non-fiction books with writers who've got a message to share that just.won't.let.go.

I've developed and edited books with 50+ authors over 12 years.

I've worked with Denise Duffield-Thomas, Leonie Dawson, Rebecca Anuwen and Lisa Lister; all prolific authors who've published - and continue to publish - multiple books over the course of their careers.

I've worked freelance for self-published authors as well as for Hay House UK.

I'm massively intuitive, regularly see things about situations that others don't, and use this skill in my work with my clients. It's not right until it feels right.

Mindset is integral to my way of working. I see through my clients' excuses and I'm not afraid to ask the hard questions.

I'm a trained doula + worked in the field when my own children were tiny (they're 17 + 20 now). Books + babies are birthed, and both need support to come into the world.

Is this membership right for you?

WHO THIS IS FOR

You're burning to write your book, but just haven't started + don't know why
You're sick of staying stuck, and are willing to use the tools + do the work to get unstuck + writing
You're aware of the necessity for, and respect, having good boundaries
You know how to take responsibility for your own processes, and know how to get yourself support when you need it (ie: this group is not your therapy)
You can see that writing a book is going to take more than just 30 days, and that you'll need to be ok to be in the 'messy middle' of the project for a while

WHO THIS IS NOT FOR

You want to smash out a book in 30 days come hell or high water, regardless of the consequences for the quality of your book, or your sanity – or that of those around you
You're attached to staying stuck, living the life of the 'tortured artist'
You want to have a platform to air your misery/grumpiness/victim mentality. Everyone doing their writing will feel things, which is normal and part of the process. Dumping them on the group without processing them yourself is not on

30-day money back guarantee

If you join Book.Write.Now With Me and find it doesn't suit you, I'm happy to offer you your first month's subscription payment back. I ask that you genuinely work through the modules of the Book.Write.Now Course that you'll have access to and show me that you've given it your time and attention. If you can show me your 'homework' (your notes and workings), attend the scheduled Zoom calls that you can make, commit to writing your book and I can see that you're not getting results, then I'm happy to refund you your purchase.

This refund doesn't cover "change of mind" - including looking through the modules but not applying the knowledge/teachings inside, attending calls and not writing your book. That's your own responsibility.

What's included in your membership?

A Facebook mastermind group (Value: $what value do you put on community?)

This is where you'll find support, encouragement + a community of other writers. You'll find your people, who are on the path just like you are + who understand what it's like!

FAQ

Will all the calls be recorded?

The two monthly Book Chat Q&A calls will be recorded. They'll be uploaded to the members portal once they're ready when the call is over. The writing accountability calls won't be recorded, because we'll be writing, which makes for a boring call!

How long will I have access?

You'll have access to the portal as long as your subscription is current. If you decide to cancel, your access to the calls, the recordings and the Book.Write.Now Course will end when your last payment period runs out.

Do you provide scholarships?

I periodically run a scholarship scheme. Email support@tamaraprotassow.com to start the scholarship application process.

What time are the calls?

Calls are on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd + 4th Tuesdays of the month, at 7:30pm AEDT/Melbourne time (check for Daylight Savings/Summer time changes in your location).

If there's a 5th Tuesday of the month, we decide together whether we want to run a feedback week or whether we write on that week.

Can I have a payment plan?

No, sorry! This is a monthly membership and so is unsuitable for a payment plan option.

Calls aren't in my timezone, can you change those?

Nope, sorry! It's hard to make call times suit everyone around the world.

Remember you do have the recordings of the Book Chat Q&A monthly call to watch back later, and if you'd like a question answered on the Book Chat Q&A call, you can always email your question in to me.
