Julie Schooler – Author Coach
I hold your hand until there’s a book in your hands
- Did you always want to write a book but have no idea how to start?
- Have you been writing and would now love to see your book in the world?
- Do you want to check off a major bucket list item and be a published author?
Thanks to changes to the publishing landscape in the past few years, you CAN write AND publish a book quickly and easily once you learn how.
Of course, you can figure it out all by yourself, but why spend hours searching for information all over the Internet?
Author coaching will help you overcome mindset issues like imposter syndrome, distracted focus and writers block. It also assists you with practical strategies such as how to find an editor, getting an ISBN and launching your book.
You will have a clear direction and won’t be confused by conflicting advice.
An author coach provides a hassle-free experience to speed up the writing, publishing and book marketing process so you can share your creativity with the world.
Is Author Coaching for YOU?
If you answer YES to any of these scenarios, author coaching will help you:
- You have always really wanted to write a book but don’t know where to start
- You are writing a book and it never seems to actually get finished
- You have written a book and now don’t know whether to attempt self-publishing (indie publishing) or take the traditional route
- You want to self-publish but are overwhelmed with everything you need to do to get your book out into the world
- You need some help finding an editor, cover designer, formatter, beta readers or setting up a book launch team
- You have dipped your toe into the book publishing world and are confused by all the acronyms (KDP, ISBN, ASIN, DRM, POD), filling out tax forms and more
- You have published a book or two and need help with sales and marketing, e.g.: building email lists, getting more reviews or paid advertising
- You have a bunch of questions about book publishing and you would really like clear, correct and straightforward answers to them

About Julie
Hi, I’m Julie Schooler, mama of 2 tiny humans and author of 10 self-help and parenting books including Easy Peasy Healthy Eating, Find Your Purpose in 15 Minutes and my free ebook, Rediscover Your Sparkle.
A few years ago I found myself pregnant with our second child and out of a job. I went to a coach and said I had always wanted to write a book. By the time our baby was six months old, my first book, Easy Peasy Potty Training was published.
Now, 6 years later, I have written and published 2 parenting books, 7 self-help books, 2 boxsets and 1 children’s picture book, Maxy-Moo Flies to the Moon. I have also drafted and not published (yet) 3 novels.
I knew absolutely nothing about writing, publishing and marketing books 6 years ago. I didn’t even know there was only space after a period / full stop! I invested thousands of dollars in courses and coaching plus I drank from the firehose of blogs, podcasts, articles and writing guides.
Today, I know exactly how to write, publish and market a best-selling book.
And I would love to share my knowledge with you so you can do it too.
“It was a pleasure to work with Julie in the process of getting my first book self-published. I felt like a babe in the woods and Julie guided me through figuring out how to publish wide and connect with the dynamic community of indie authors. I would highly recommend working with her!” – R.A. Harding, author of Public Works Steampunk presents: Jane Eyre
“Julie was super helpful in peer reviewing my first attempt at writing a children’s picture book. Her feedback was thoughtful, practical and most important of all, truthful! She gave me the confidence to push on with what I had, reshape what needed tweaking, and provided plenty of tips (as well as laughs) along the way.” – Kelly

Write a Book – Change Your Life
Writing my first book changed my life and every week I get messages from people all over the world that have been positively impacted by my words.
I want YOU to feel the same sense of success, fulfilment, accomplishment and creative pride that I felt when I published my first book and still feel today even after publishing my tenth.
I am on a mission to help people get their creative projects out into the world. We need entertainment, education and inspiration in these banana-pants crazy times. The planet needs us all to show up, connect and be creative.
The world has changed so much in the last year. There are no rules in more. Do the thing that brings you joy, even if it seems hard at first.
Why not write and publish a book? No one can stop you.
Imagine how you will feel when your book is in your hands.
“Having Julie by my side helped tremendously. Her knowledge is second to none and her energy is contagious.” – Madeleine Eskedahl, best-selling author of Blood on Vines
