FINALLY write YOUR BOOK

I’m a writing mentor who specialises in developing non-fiction books with purpose-driven women.

HOW I CAN HELP YOU

I’M TAMARA 

I’ve developed + edited books with 50+ authors since starting my business as a tiny side hustle in 2012. 

I’ve worked with some trailblazing authors, including Denise Duffield Thomas, Leonie Dawson and Lisa Lister, and have edited both freelance for self-published authors, as well as for Hay House UK.

I can help you if you: 

  • Have an inkling… a nudge… an idea for a book that just won’t go away, 
  • Never thought you’d be an author; that’s for ‘other people’, not for you
  • Might have had an idea for years, just in the back of your mind but you know you can’t ignore it any more. 
  • Are at a stage in business where your profile needs a boost: you’ve got enough knowledge under your belt now to really showcase your expertise. 

I know that a book’s a big project… like, PROPERLY big. It’s daunting. It’s like looking up at a mountain from the bottom and not knowing how you’ll ever get to the top. 

I’ll be your guide on the way, books are a known terrain for me. We can do it together.

Testimonials & Featured Clients

Joanne Matthews, soon-to-be-author of groundbreaking new book, Force of Nature

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.

Julie-Anne Black, Be Brilliant Now 

Today was the first time I truly felt like a writer. I knew I was writing my book and becoming an author. What a thrill! 

Shauntay Williams, author-to-be

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! 

Dr Dorene Lehavi, PhD, author of Business Partnership Essentials

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.

Darren Naftal, DN Architecture. Author of Block in a Hard Place

I never thought I’d write a book. I became an architect as designing is what I do best, not writing. But I had a book idea i knew i needed to get out there. Tamara was always there with encouragement and support, to steer me back on track. She became my ‘autocorrect’ for both my words, but more importantly my belief in those words. I’m an author now, and i like the sound of that, thanks to you Tamara for getting me there. 

Nikki Mennel, author of Green Smoothies: live like it matters

Working with Tamara was a fantastic experience.  She really took the time to get know my topic and the feel I wanted to convey in the book.  Tamara was able to give me great suggestions on how to bring the book together in an easy to read format, which was very important to me. I am thrilled with the result.   

I've worked with Tamara on and off for the last 6 years in a bunch of different capacities (because she can run with anything you throw at her) - and she is one of the best I've ever worked with. Wise. Supportive. Smart as all get out. Brilliantly communicative. She knows her shit about books and business, and life in general. She gets 5 stars on PersonReview.com from me!

Write, regardless.

The struggle to write your book while the world feels like it’s spinning out of control is real. How can you take time to get your writing done, your book finished, your published book out there with your name on it when everything’s on fire?  The answer is to...

It’s time to write your book

If you haven’t already, then now is the time to write your book. It’s not about becoming an author (though it is that too), it’s about writing your book so your ideas can reach people.  Ideas, the explorations of the human mind and the thoughts that stretch us,...

It’s time to descend

Last time Trump won, in 2016, I encouraged, rallied, gave the pep talk. I called you to stand up, be loud, be the change you wanted to see in the world. I said it was more important than ever to hold the light, have your say, raise your voice. And it was. But this...

Let’s Start a Conversation

I acknowledge and pay my respects to the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation who are the traditional and ongoing custodians of the land on which I live and work. 

I pay my respects to their elders: past, present and emerging, and I acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded.
