The Author Mentorship
For writers ready to build not just a story, but a career.
A three-month private mentorship to shape your artistry, strategy, and author brand from the inside out.
What is The Author Mentorship?
A three-month 1:1 creative and business immersion for writers, storytellers, and authors who are ready to grow both their craft and their career.
It blends the emotional, technical, and artistic depth of The Story Cauldron with the clarity, structure, and strategy of business mentorship—so your creative work doesn’t just live in your mind, it lives in the world.
You’ll write, refine, and build: your story, your readership, and your rhythm as an author.
Together
Things we’ll explore:
Story Craft
Deepening your voice and prose so it’s instantly recognisable as yours
Pacing, tension, and emotional beats that hold readers captive
Scene work, structure, and worldbuilding that feel alive
Line-level editing and storytelling refinement for resonance and power
Author Identity
Defining your unique signature and energetic trademark as a writer
Positioning your stories, subgenres, and reader promises
Building confidence in your creative rhythm and process
Marketing & Strategy
Crafting a brand that feels human, not performative
Shaping your marketing around story and emotion, not algorithms
Substack, social, and storytelling strategies that build real connection
Book launch and reader journey planning—organic and soulful, yet strategic
The mechanics of the publishing industry as an indie author: from distribution, metadata, and pricing to platforms, retailers, and long-term growth

The Afterglow:
Once you’ve made your purchase, please keep your eye on your inbox. You’ll receive a personal email from B.J. Wilde within 24 hours of purchase with a form to complete about your ideas, goals and dreams, as well as a calendar link to book your calls and my contact information to text and voice note between sessions. If you have a piece of writing you’ve already penned that feels like a great representation of your artistry, you’ll be asked to send that — not for critique, but for a strengths and style assessment. If not, that’s okay! We’ll work on it together within our sessions.
