Master The Monograph

Writing a monograph is a joyful writing experience

If it’s not feeling that way for you, step inside Master the Monograph Membership for the training and accountability you need to get that book published.

Writing a book can be a long, lonely experience. It is a different writing skillset from the one you usually perform, and because of that, every time you commit to a book, it is SCARY.

How will I complete this huge project alongside everything else?

How do I break this down into achievable chunks that don’t overwhelm me?

How do I stay committed to my original idea when my ideas are constantly evolving?

How do I know when I’ve read enough? How do I build a big interconnected project that makes sense? How do move efficiently through the text to the final product?

WHAT DO I DO WHEN I GET STUCK?!

If you are feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, and a little bit lost, instead of feeling JOYOUS at the writing freedom this one - and only this - genre of writing provides, Master the Monograph is for you.

Coaching book writing is my FAVOURITE type of coaching, because book writing has the habit of exposing all our writing fears and insecurities that we might mask in other types of writing. This is the perfect vehicle to rediscover the joy of professional writing and make a contribution that really speaks to your value and passion.

Testimonials

Academic Coach has transformed my writing practices. The Academic Coach Writing Accelerator Course draws on a range of literature to provide tools and techniques you can use to refine each element of the writing process. The daily emails both support the writing process and serve as a reminder to put writing on the top of my list. The effective, efficient academic writing process brought to me by the Academic Coach has released time to enjoy life without sacrificing productivity.
— Dr Rachel Cahill O'Callaghan, UK Russell Group University
Melanie has designed a no-nonsense, well rounded academic writing course which will appeal to any academic who needs a boost and very practical suggestions on how to carve out time for writing when faced with many teaching, administrative and management demands. The course builds on state of the art research in academic writing across the globe, but is also grounded in Melanie’s many years of personal and professional experience as an academic in UK institutions. In particular, I enjoyed learning about the emotional investment we have in writing, the way to deal with the ‘stories we tell ourselves ‘ that keep us from writing. The emphasis is on making writing a daily routine, however little time we might allocate, and foremost becoming a ‘happier’ rather than merely a more ‘productive’ writer. The daily mini-talks and interactive web-lectures provide a sense of routine that keeps one sticking to their project.
