The Process
Our Process
While each client’s project is unique and customized, The Author’s Greenhouse standardizes its approach to developing a well-organized, cohesive manuscript.

Meet
So you want to sow literary seeds? If you have found our company, you’ve likely been thinking about writing a book for some time, but may not have had a resource to help you make it happen. Let’s meet online and discuss your project. Our 30-minute review sessions are complimentary.

Discuss Goals
What kind of harvest do you want? Every writer has a reason to write a book. We want to hear what your goals are for each book project, including why you are writing the book and what results you are hoping to achieve. This will help us determine if we are the best resource for you, and if so, how to approach the project to best achieve those goals.

Discuss Timeline
What is the season for this? Projects that are most successful are tied to a deadline that continues to motivate the writer. Examples of these timelines would be conferences and other special events, presentations, important anniversaries or birthdays, family requests or partnership opportunities.

Review Materials

Determine Support
What resources will help you tend a fruitful garden? A book project, similarly, involves many resources and time. We will talk with you about the resources you may already have, and help you to determine what other resources you need to create the manuscript to achieve your goals.

Create Budget

Prepare Plan
How does this harvest fit with other crops? Our clients have important personal and professional commitments. You will need to understand how this project fits in with your other responsibilities, and likewise, our company needs to understand how do you best work. We will put together a plan that helps you accomplish your writing goals within your timelines.
