Join FOUNDATION, a self-guided book building intensive
for writers who are ready to craft their non-fiction book or memoir and don’t want to delay their dreams any longer.
Go from “I wish” to “I did” with proven tools and advice previously only available in my exclusive, invite-only masterminds.
"This was just what I needed to realize I could write a book. I now have several books in process and one being published in a few months. Patti deftly guided me from clueless to confident. If you’ve ever wanted to write a book but wondered where to start, this program will show you the way in a clear, concise way that is fun even when it’s scary.
~ Ken Bechtel, author of Follow Your YES
Writers like you come to me when they discover the first truth of writerhood: writing a book is tough… and even tougher to do alone.
So, if you’ve found yourself feeling frustrated, confused, defeated, unsure, self-critical, and alone, you’re in good company!
Too many people give up on their dream of writing a book because they think their situation is unrecoverable or that it’s “just them.” I’m here to tell you that it’s NOT just you.
You likely have an excellent idea for your book but have yet to step into a space of support, understanding, answers, and tangible actions.
You’re here because you know you’re meant to write this book.
FOUNDATION opens right where you are at this moment (I see you!). You're clouded by disorganization, doubt, and dread. Wondering if you can even do this book thing, or if anyone will read it. Right?
Inside this program, you’ll…
- Stay inspired, get organized, and find the best tech
- Get in touch with who you're writing for, and what you absolutely must include in order to feel satisfied with your book.
- Draft a prologue, write an opening chapter, and create an archive of content that will become your completion plan.
- Recall the scenes and moments that became thoughts worth sharing, develop their connectedness into chapters, create your book AND craft a completion plan
…AND throughout you'll be in touch with the mission behind your writing along as you hone your key themes and messages!
It's got everything you need to answer the question you're asking right now - can I do it? YES You CAN!
Writing gets done when there is fuel for the journey—FOUNDATION is that fuel.
Hey there, I’m Patti!
I'm a writing and book coach for traditional and self-published authors, and a nonfiction writer myself. I work with memoirists, solopreneurs, storytellers, changemakers, coaches and speakers to translate their messages into manifestoes, published memoirs and business-boosting masterpieces.
I have extensive experience working with coaching modalities, medically-focused subjects and business leadership frameworks. I'm a committed #Memoiraholic that believe EVERY book begins with a trustable, compelling narrator— YOU!
I know what it takes to go from IDEA to BOOK.
I’m an alchemist—helping people imagine, narrate, and structure powerful books. I love the way that books are at the nexus of art and architecture — their infrastructure begins from the scaffolding of an outline, chapter, scenes, backstory and reflection and the narrative elements are unearthed like specks of colour; breadcrumbs for the reader to find their way to what only you can share with them..
I'm a magnet for storytellers; I always have been. I was built for listening, cultivating memories, and tugging at tales. Your mission to share what you have to say becomes mine when we work together, because empathy is my highest value.
Writers need tools, not templates. Support not guarantees. FOUNDATION features my writing models: Book Building, DISTILL and DEEPEN. They will have you creating, embellishing and polishing your content with confidence and pleasure. Doesn't that sound inviting?
You have a MOUNTAIN of content but don’t know how to turn it into a book.
I know what it’s like—I’ve helped hundreds of writers and I’ve been jammed up myself. I get it… you have some content, a burning desire to create more, a keen understanding that you could support and inspire others, and then you run up against the how questions—the reality wall of how do I actually turn this into a book?
You’ve pulled together powerful insights from…
- Your podcast, blogs, and other content
- Your clients’ success stories
- And the proven framework you’ve created
…Looking at it all, you KNOW there’s a book in there.
Not only that. You NEED there to be a book in there.
You’ve got big dreams of making an impact and a book is part of how you’re going to make it all happen.
Thankfully, you don’t have to figure this out on your own.
You’re ready to write that book and expand your impact so you can take TED stages, fill your membership program, and launch a masterclass series.
You have a burning desire to reach more people and inspire others! But to become that source of inspiration, you also need inspiration AND instruction to get your book written and out into the world.
My years of writing, coaching, and extensive experience as a developmental editor have shown me what writers just like you need, and I’ve poured it all into FOUNDATION!
FOUNDATION puts the accessible, relatable, doable approach to writing into a self-paced program where you can get the key milestones of the first stages of bookcraft done, AND have a plan to complete your book.
I’m putting my exclusive approach and tools into a self-paced deep dive for you to enable and empower you to:
Reframe the lies you’ve been telling yourself about writing and begin the process of creating your book
Reign in high-quality content that is pouring like a random fire hose rather than a directed garden hose
Grow your writing muscles and gain confidence as a writer using the assignments in the course
Get a solid first draft on the page and plan a writing path from your crumbs of content and ideas
Remember, Early drafts don’t look like gold but they are!
Introducing . . .
FOUNDATION
A 6-module self-guided online program that helps you go from idea overwhelm to

You’ll see that everything is content, and you have plenty to craft your book!
Say goodbye to self-doubt as you read the irreverent but compassionate coaching sheets in the course, like “10 Reasons to Write Your Book Anyway”, and complete the very focused workbook pages that have you outlining your essential content.
Inside this program, you’ll confidently know why you are the best person to share your message with future readers and clients!

What People Are Saying:
"To the best book coach ever, Patti M. Hall. The title book coach doesn’t even begin to describe your immense talent and support. You were my champion, cheerleader, thread puller, memory prompter, co-conspirator, therapist, coach, editor, and, best of all, friend. I could never have done this without you. I’d still be on the first chapter (crying). Thank you from the depths of my heart and soul."
~ Shelley Paxton, author of Soulbbatical
"This was the incubator I needed to get started on my book. My writing improved exponentially and I developed my voice . I learned a framework, even though I didn’t know that’s what I was doing. Also, I learned the unvarnished truth that getting a book into the world is a huge task!"
~ Tim Snell, book in progress “Breath Is Love”

JOIN NOW!
Here’s what is waiting for you on the other side of completing FOUNDATION:
Get through the prep stages you can’t avoid and into creation mode, quickly. Go at your pace, as you’re ready, and see an outline and chapters in progress when you’re done.
Learn about your publishing options while you write. You may want a private coach, to join a writing group with people who are also completing books, blend your nonfiction content with stories from your life, or go for traditional publishing. You might start with a business book and end up writing a collection of conversations. You book, your time, your way.
FOUNDATION gets you through the inevitable self-doubt, random mountain of pages, and takes you into the treasure hunt of finding your essential content. It teaches you to be a discerning book builder while vaulting content you already have that is just in another form like that podcast, blog, or LinkedIn profile you've been loading up for years.
I wanted people I work with to have a chance to get themselves through at least the first dozen or so hurdles before we dive into a mastermind or one-on-one coaching together and finish the book. You gain confidence by doing as much as you can yourself.
After you’ve completed the program, you will be:
- Confident of your key messages, essential content, and book structure
- Writing the book you always dreamed of
- Planning your first draft completion date
Your book is waiting, it’s time to get rolling.
