Do you resonate with any of these?
You have characters and scenes, but no idea how they fit together.
You’ve written 30,000 words and hit a wall — again.
You love your story but hate your writing.
You have so many ideas, you can’t choose one (or stick with it).
You second-guess every word, convinced you’re not good enough to write this.
You’re exhausted. The kids are napping, or work just ended, and you only have 20 minutes to write — but you’re paralyzed.
You’ve tried writing again and again... but you’re stuck on chapter three.
You want to honor your story and characters, but don’t know how.
If so, you are not alone.
Writing is hard, but it’s not because you’re doing it wrong.
You just need a plan, support, and someone who gets it.

Elizabeth Higgins Author of Bella’s Choice, A Tule Tug Safe Baoting Adventure
As a first-time children’s picture book author, Elyse is not only my book coach, but she is my therapist, my teacher, and my encourager! To learn the technical side of becoming a self-published author is overwhelming but doable. But to realize how incredibly personal and emotional writing can be requires someone by your side. For me, Elyse Seal is that perfect someone.
Elyse is knowledgeable, has a keen sense of what resonates with children, and is honest beyond compare. After reading my first manuscript, Elyse told me it would not get published as written. She then made a rather long list of the positive aspects of my manuscript. Each time I wanted to give up, her list kept me going
I continue to work with Elyse regularly and would recommend her as your book coach. She is grand!
Emily Nielsen Jones Co-Author of The Girl Child & Her Long Walk to Freedom
It has been my great privilege working with Elyse. From start to finish, Elyse was a delight to work with and always brought a very high standard for her work as an editor not missing any detail and also having an eye for the larger flow of an idea. In addition, she allowed herself to enter into the ideas as a human being, so she was both editor and thought partner. She is a skillful editor who I would recommend for any project.
