MANUSCRIPT COACHING
WRITE START MANUSCRIPT COACHING
From Blueprint through First Draft Completion
Write Start Manuscript Coaching is the natural continuation of Write Start Blueprint Coaching. Where Blueprint Coaching establishes the foundation of your story, Manuscript Coaching walks with you through the entire first draft, using that blueprint as our guide.
​
This package includes everything covered in Blueprint Coaching—structure, character clarity, chapter purpose—and extends that work across the full writing process, so you’re not left to navigate the draft on your own.
​
This is not editing.
This is guided authorship from beginning to end.
This is for Clean or Christian Fiction writers.
What This Coaching Is (and Is Not)
Write Start Manuscript Coaching builds on a completed story blueprint and supports you as you execute that plan through drafting.
​
We work in two layers simultaneously:
​
-
Foundation-level clarity (plot, character, structure)
-
Draft-level decision-making (scene execution, pacing, momentum)
This is coaching, not editing. I advise and guide your decisions, help you interpret what’s happening on the page, and course-correct when needed. I do not line edit, rewrite sentences, or polish prose.
Who this Coaching Is for
This package is a strong fit if you:​
-
Write Clean or Christian Fiction
-
Have completed Write Start Blueprint Coaching (or equivalent preparation)
-
Want continued guidance beyond planning
-
Don’t want to write your first draft alone
-
Need accountability paired with discernment
-
Value finishing well over finishing fast
This is especially helpful for writers who tend to:
-
Lose confidence once drafting begins
-
Drift from their original structure mid-book
-
Get stuck in the middle and abandon projects
How the Coaching Works
Length: 6 months+ (as needed to finish draft)
Calls: Two 60-minute 1:1 coaching calls per month
Support Between Calls: Chapter submissions and ongoing guidance
​
You’ll draft at a sustainable pace, typically submitting 1–3 chapters per month. I read with the entire manuscript in mind, not isolated scenes, ensuring the draft remains cohesive and intentional.
The Monthly Rhythm
Each month follows a consistent, supportive pattern:
​
Call One — Direction
We look ahead using your blueprint.
-
Review upcoming chapters
-
Revisit chapter purpose and story movement
-
Clarify character choices and tension
-
Identify potential issues before they appear on the page
This keeps your drafting grounded and intentional.
Call Two — Review & Course-Correct
We reflect and refine.
-
Discuss submitted chapters
-
Address structure, pacing, POV, clarity, and stakes
-
Evaluate how well chapters are serving the blueprint
-
Adjust the outline thoughtfully if the story evolves
This ensures growth without derailment.
What This Feels Like for Most Writers
Writers often describe this phase as:
-
Writing with a safety net
-
Accountability that speeds up the writing process
-
Finally finishing a book they started
-
Staying aligned instead of spiraling mid-draft
-
Learning how to manage a long project with confidence
​
By the End of the Blueprint Coaching
Stay on course, and you will leave with:
-
A completed first draft
-
A manuscript that stayed aligned with its original blueprint
-
A cleaner draft that makes editing a breeze
-
A deeper understanding of your writing process
-
Confidence you can carry into your next book
