This gives your mini-books structure and helps each one build on the last.<\/p>\t\t\n\t\t\t\tPhase 2\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Write<\/h3>\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<p>Each month, we write a mini-book built around one core idea. You talk through your thinking on a 60-minute call, I write the draft, and we do two rounds of feedback until it&#8217;s ready to publish.<\/p>\t\t\n\t\t\t\tPhase 3\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Publish<\/h3>\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<p>I polish the mini-book so it&#8217;s ready to copy and paste into your platform of choice. While we&#8217;re wrapping up one mini-book, we&#8217;re already outlining the next. The process is nonlinear by design, because good thinking doesn&#8217;t happen on a deadline.<\/p>\t\t\n\t\t\t\tPhase 4\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Repeat<\/h3>\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<p>By your third mini-book, patterns emerge. We&#8217;ll see what resonates, what needs more depth, and what your audience keeps coming back to. That&#8217;s when we build a publishing roadmap around your business goals, working backward from a book outline.<\/p>\t\t\n<h2>\n\t\t\tWhat clients have to say.\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>&#8220;Katrina is a triple threat: clear writer, sharp editor, and strategic thinker.
