Hey, LightWriter. Welcome to the Arc!

5 months. Full-spectrum support. A finished book — so you can start your next chapter as an author.

A Complete Book, a New Chapter

The LightWriter Arc is our most supportive and transformative writing program. Yes, you'll discover my cut-the-fluff formula for writing a bestseller. But, more importantly, we'll honour what a sacred and powerful process writing a memoir based on your life is.

 

My promise? You won't be the same person when you type The End.

Hi, I'm Amy

Let's get to know each other (very well!)

 

When I launched my online book-writing course five years ago, I honestly thought that would be my hero product—a space where writers could go at their own pace, in their own time. Low commitment, low cost.

But in the past 18 months, everything changed.

Writers started craving something deeper. Not just creative advice, but real conversation. Emotional support. Weekly accountability. Someone in their corner — consistently, compassionately. And they asked me: Can we work together more closely? More often?

This offering was never part of the original plan.
It evolved organically. And it’s now the most wonderful work I do.

If you’re writing about a deeply personal experience, my mentoring style is releasing, healing, and cleansing. This process often creates big emotional shifts — and the result is not just an epic book manuscript, but meaningful transformation.

FAQS

Who is this for?

Writers at any stage — whether you have a full draft, a messy pile of notes, or just an idea you're ready to commit to.

How is this different from your online course?

This is a completely personalised experience with weekly mentoring, chapter editing, and emotional support. The course is self-paced. This is side-by-side support.

Do I need a full book idea to apply?

No — if you have the seed of a story and a willingness to show up for it, that’s enough.

Is there a payment plan?
Yes, the payment is split into four installations. Or you can seal your commitment by paying in one. (I know, a lot of my writers prefer this, so they feel like they're all in!).
How do I apply?

Click the Apply Now link below. As I only work with a specific number of writers in this way per year, I do personally approve all applications. So tell me about yourself!  

How do I secure my spot?

Once you get a yes, you'll be asked to pay $365 to secure your first mentoring session — this also gives you instant access to my book writing course, The Book Writing Remedy. The remaining instalments are sent via invoice every month, from our start date.

What’s the next step?

Once your deposit is paid, you'll also be sent my Editor's Contract, which outlines confidentiality and copyright. (This is a sacred, space safe and all work created together is yours.)

So keen! When can we begin?

'Amy is a unique combination of talented editor, savvy writer and generous soul. This mix ensures that your story gets told in a way that feels engaging, snappy, humorous, raw and vulnerable all at once. Writing a book can be a lonely experience. With Amy as your editor, you won’t feel alone. She really cares about you and your story—this is evident every step of the way.'

Fleur Chambers,
Author of Ten Pathways and Wholehearted Confidence

"Amy is a world-class editor who has a gift for editing with ruthless compassion! As a sharp editor, she not only helped to improve my writing, but her kindness and generosity always left me feeling cared for, encouraged, and motivated. Brilliant at what she does, but even better for who she is, writing and producing my children’s picture book series with Amy’s mentorship was a dream."

Jaleesa Paine

From the start, I felt incredibly safe in Amy's hands. Her support, guidance and wisdom took my writing from a mere idea to a book that I am truly proud of. She nurtured and developed the writer within me, gave me permission to feel and be authentic, and was there every step of the way — from writing to publication. She is an incredible writer, mentor, coach, teacher, visionary, and a supporter who brings out the best in her writers. I recommend her to everyone I know"

Phoebe Rogers

Author of When Will it Happen for Me?

"Amy's writing and editing genius, and holistic book coaching were like having a secret weapon onboard. Every time I wanted to scream, 'Stop the ride', Amy kept me on track, through writing and editing the book, to publishing it and beyond."

“Amy demystified the world of publishing, so I had a strategy that worked. And I knew exactly what I was seeking in a publisher-author relationship. I have no hesitation that without her experienced guidance and support, my first published book may still be a notion rather than hitting the shelves.”

"Amy took my spark of an idea and helped me flesh it out into a fully formed, book deal winning pitch. For the confidence and clarity she gave me, I’m forever grateful."

"I loved working with Amy. My publishing deal wouldn't have been possible without her support, guidance and belief in my story — a very tough story to tell."

Let's chat value for money 💸

Yes, this is my premium product, but there's a reason it's so popular. Here's what you're really buying:

- Years off your book writing timeline

- Supportive momentum — with empathy and self-care — to find your flow, and finally get over your creative blockages.
- Access to my little black book of book pitching contacts.

- A book writing coach who knows the juggle is real, and works with you and your strengths and limitations.

- Bespoke book writing advice, whether you're working through trauma or want neurodivergent-friendly writing tips.
- A cheer squad and strategist rolled into one
- Less overthinking. More actual writing.
- The confidence to say, “I’m writing a book”—and mean it.

Payment plan — broken down.
Total price for the 5-month immersion is: $7680 + gst where applicable. 
This is split into 5x payments of $1536 per month. ✨
(And,  yes, you can cancel your membership if you don't love our vibe. It hasn't happened yet!)
 
Your total savings!

The combined value of everything included in this program is $9,785, but I offer the Immersion as a complete package for $7,680 — because I want committed writers to have full support without piecing it together session by session.
Total saving: $2,105

What to pay today?

Once I approve your application, you'll be asked to pay a deposit of $365 to book your first mentoring call. This also gives you instant access to our online program, The Book Writing Remedy.

 

All remaining payments will be staggered over the 5-months from our start date. (Minus the $365 already paid). Once approved, you'll have access to a members portal to access the online course and additional resources, and book all your future sessions with ease.

Any questions - please just ask!
Not in your budget yet? That's why I created my online course, The Book Writing Remedy (just $185). Or book a single 1:1 mentoring session — and we can create a book writing journey to meet your means.
