Book Coach
Michaela von Schweinitz is an Author Accelerator licensed book coach who helps writers of fiction, nonfiction, and memoir bring their stories to life. With compassion and clarity, she guides writers from idea to completion—refining voice, structure, and purpose so they can finish their books and share them with confidence and authenticity.
From idea to first draft.
From structure to book proposal.
From revision to finding an agent.
Michaela von Schweinitz offers guidance to craft the story you want to tell. She helps you dig deeper and find what matters to you. She gives you the tools to reach and captivate the reader.
As a screenwriter and film editor, Michaela supported storytellers from Hollywood as well as from Germany. From idea to published story, writing is an adventure like no other. On such a mysterious journey full of surprises, challenges, and rewards, you sometimes need a joyful companion to get you through. Someone like Donkey in Shrek.
In memoir she guides writers who show us how they turned their lives around. She wants to hear from women who grew out of their limiting believes in customs and the law, in religion and family. Overcoming suppressive circumstances in their upbringing or as they raise their own families.
In fiction and in non-fiction she works on stories that aim for social and environmental justice. Stories that deepen our understanding of current structures of injustice. Showing us a way out of suppression, offering solutions on an individual and on a systemic level.
Are you ready to tell your story? Have you written for years and wonder when it’ll ever be finished? What’s that story hiding deep in your desk that you’re itching to bring into the world? Michaela will help you write and publish your book.
