Coaching
We partner each aspiring author with a bestselling, experienced bestseller as a personal coach to provide you with customized help with your genre.
1-on-1 Coaching
Over 2 Million new books were published in 2022. Every single one of them is unique, and yours is no different. With 4 one-on-one coaching calls, our bestselling fiction coaches will help you identify your Tier-1s, craft your book's plot and structure to fit your genre's expectations, and assist in creating a book series that will sell—all without sacrificing quality of story. A fiction book's success depends on its story, characters, and fiction elements. Our coaches will help you get it right.
Group Coaching
Have you ever heard the saying, “a rising tide lifts all boats?” We believe this is what happens when a group of writers come together to talk through their wins and challenges. Our fiction group coaching is held weekly by our bestselling fiction coach where he breaks down publishing updates, fiction findings, AMS ads, plotting, characterization, and even shares his screen to walk you through his own processes, ultimately answering your most-asked questions.
Daily Coaching Office Hours
Sometimes, you need an answer ASAP in this industry. Your time is precious and this process can be unpredictable. This program is designed to give you the support you need quickly and easily, which is why we give you 12 months of unlimited daily coaching. These group coaching calls are scheduled between 10 and 15 times per week and are always live on Zoom with a bestselling author coach facilitating. You’re welcome to drop in and ask (or answer!) questions as they come up.

COMMUNITY
Not everyone “gets it” when it comes to why you want to write and publish fiction. We do. Surrounding yourself with other authors who understand your journey is crucial to your success.
Exclusive Mastermind Community
For 12 months, you’ll have access to our private author mastermind community with direct access to more than 2,000 published authors. It's a powerful resource for finding reliable writing partners, gathering helpful feedback on your cover or title, putting together a launch team, and getting book reviews. In a group like this, someone else has already been where you are, and they're excited to help you through it if needed.
Writing Rooms
Our writing rooms give you the time, space, and accountability to WRITE. When you join the Zoom writing room, you’ll begin by setting your word count goal for the session along with everyone else. Then, you’ll mute yourself and get to work—with your camera either on or off. We’ll set the tone by playing relaxing music and then end the session by sharing our word counts with each other and even some wins or total progress.

How To Work With Us
This program is the best fit for aspiring fiction authors looking for mentorship, coaching, and support from a bestselling fiction author throughout their writing journey. You will learn to craft compelling plot lines, write crisp dialogue, and develop characters readers fall in love with. We require applicants to book a free, one-hour strategy call so we can both be sure this is the right program for you. Even if you don’t end up joining, this will be the best hour you’ve spent on your book and goals.
“The call gave confidence and energy to do something I didn't think I was capable of doing. Imagine going through your life, always thinking, I should write a book about my experiences but never having the courage and belief that you could. Suddenly, someone believes in you, provides direction, and honestly tells you that you are capable.”
STEPHEN VIEIRA
“The call I had just made it real for me that I could really get my book published. I had been ‘trying' to write and finish my book but was stuck in this perpetual loop of editing, changing, doubting and losing motivation as a result. I didn't see the full picture of how my book fit into the business I was trying to build so I would fizzle out and stop. But it all came together when I had my first phone call with Nate and then my subsequent coaching calls with Kerk. I was all in.”
RANIA KORT
“Just before my first call with SelfPublishing.com I was SO nervous and didn’t know what to expect. I learned that I could actually do it…make my dream come true of writing a book and getting it published! I will forever be grateful to SelfPublishing.com for the gift of becoming an author!”

P.C. James
Author of the 'Miss Riddell Cozy Mysteries' series
“Before SelfPublishing.com, I published a book through Lulu. The book on Lulu never sold a copy because I had no idea what to do once it was published. My experience with SelfPublishing.com and Ramy was hugely better. People are impressed with my new found position as ‘selling author'. I'm proud of having #1 best sellers on occasions and books in the upper reaches of Amazon's lists.”
Kathryn LeBlanc
Author of the 'Quilting Cozy Mysteries' series
“Prior to SelfPublishing.com I had zero experience writing or publishing. My coach challenged me to write my first cozy mystery rough draft in six weeks…and I DID! That book (Sewing Suspicion) stood in the top three in my Amazon category for just over nine months. Sewing Suspicion has received an Indie book award and it has launched my career as a successful full time author.“
Lauren Lee Merewether
Author of the 'The Lost Pharaoh Chronicles' Series
“I realized I did not want to be on my deathbed asking, ‘what if?' and telling my children about my grand dreams of being a full-time author and never actually making a plan to at least try. So I started with the SelfPublishing.com. I learned so much about storytelling, marketing, launching, and everything I needed to make a career out of writing fiction.“
Leigh Roberts
Author of the New Realm Online series
“So many bits of pieces of wisdom that RE Vance has shared over all the calls – AND MORE – are pulled together in a great program. The videos are concise, well-organized. There are PDF transcripts for those of us who sometimes need to ‘see' the text rather than hear the words. Very helpful. If you are looking for gold, here it is!”
Waldo Rodriguez
Author of the New Realm Online series
“I did that whole process of shooting letters our to agents and publishers. And it was just like the most soul crushing thing. Here, we're going to skip all the BS and go straight to the meat and potatoes. And if you're actually dedicating yourself, putting the time into it, you're going to be able to get pretty far.”
Nola Li Barr
Author of the Skyline Mansion series
“One of the biggest things I worried about when I joined SelfPublishing.com was monetary. It’s a lot of money to invest in yourself without knowing what you’re going to get out of it. And I have to say it’s probably the best investment I’ve ever made in myself. And I’ve gone through a PhD, I’ve gone through multiple jobs, I’ve gone through multiple industries. It’s the best investment I’ve ever done for myself.”
Ashley Emma
Author of the 'Covert Police Detectives Unit' Series
“One of the best choices I've made was to join Selfpublishing.com. I've published 5 books with them – all of my books have been bestsellers and my most recent has brought in over $25,000 worth of business in the first four months. Self publishing was the best choice I've made for my career.”
Kimberly Diede
Author of the 'Celia's Gifts' Series
“I started to write a book six or seven years ago and it just sat in my drawer. I didn’t know what to do with it or how to publish it, and then I discovered SelfPublishing.com. I published and hit 10,000 units sold.”
