Limited slots · $500 per hour

One on One with Coral

One hour, just you and me. Bring whatever is stuck — a manuscript that will not come together, a launch that flopped, a series plan you cannot see the shape of. Your actual book, your actual numbers. No general advice, no waiting your turn. Slots are deliberately limited.

Trope Masterclass

Tropes are not clichés, they are a promise — and readers buy the promise before they buy the book. A deep dive into how to stack tropes so they amplify instead of cancel, and how to map them across a series. Live trope mapping on real premises.

Christmas for Authors: Marketing Workshop

December is the highest-spending month of the year and most authors sit it out. Build your whole December plan: what to promote and when, gift and cozy-read angles, seasonal ads and email, gift guides and bundles. You do not need a Christmas book to sell at Christmas — you need Christmas positioning.
