Let’s make you a published author!

 

If you want to write or finish writing your book in six months or fewer and become a published author, my Author Mastermind is for you.

Do you have big ideas? Piles of notes? A rough draft of a manuscript? 

Do you find solace in the quiet corners of your home or a shady lounge chair under a canopy of trees, where your thoughts dance freely, weaving tales you know should be told? 

I’ve been in that same quiet corner and still hang out under trees to daydream on paper. The difference is, I have finished and published many books for my clients and for me. I know the way, and I want to guide you through a transformative journey from big idea to bookshelf success.

Of all the people with book ideas, 97% NEVER write the book. Of the 3% who do take action and write their books, only 40% ever publish. You CAN write your book. You can FINISH your book. You can PUBLISH your book. I’ll help you! 

ENROLL NOW TO BEGIN!

Are you ready to take the leap from aspiring writer with ideas or a rough draft to a manuscript-turned-masterpiece ready to publish? Are you ready to become an author?

Join the group.  We will help you.  You can do it!  You will have instruction.  You will have awesome support.  Let's write your book. 

Does this describe you?

 
➡️  You have a book idea and are just getting started with the writing process, but you are suffering from imposter syndrome, thinking, Who am I to write a book?
 
➡️ You have a rough draft and KNOW it needs work, but you aren't sure what that "work" is.
 
➡️  You don’t know what you don’t know and worry about legal issues, grammar, mechanics, and organization. 
 
➡️ Maybe you work full-time and have a family or multiple obligations. You don’t have hours per day to focus on writing, so you feel like you will NEVER finish.
 
➡️ You've had this idea for a long time, but you need encouragement and structure to take each small step (and big steps) toward your dream of becoming a published author.
 
 
➡️ You value step by step guidance at your pace but don’t know where to find it. 
 
➡️ You are tired of procrastinating and don't want to look back in a year and wish you'd had the discipline to finish your book.
 
➡️ You have something important to say but aren't sure how to organize your ideas or structure your writing.
 
➡️ You enjoy sharing your ideas and opinions and learning from others.  
 
➡️ You want to publish your book SOON and share your book with family, friends, and the world!
➡️  You value step by step guidance at your pace but don’t know where to find it. 
 
➡️ You have appropriately invested hard-earned money in writing, editing, designing, and publishing your book. Now you want to at least break even but ideally make a solid profit. 
 
➡️ Your book is LIVE and available to the entire world to purchase. (By the way, congratulations!!!) You are excited to share your achievement, but you may be disappointed in book sales.

Your story does matter. 

Through the sometimes-hectic hum of everyday life, your stories have buzzed through your brain, begging you to write them down for good. That nagging feeling is your gut telling you to go for it! Your life experiences, wisdom, and creativity deserve to be immortalized on the pages of a book. Books live forever! 

What if I told you that..

You can learn how to finish and polish your manuscript in six months without being stressed, overwhelmed, confused, doubtful, or lonely. 

 
Imagine a journey where writing and FINISHING your manuscript is not only attainable but also enjoyable. 
 
Picture a path where you can embrace the guidance of experts, follow a step-by-step plan, participate in group discussions, and finish writing and polishing your book in six months. 

Write, revise, polish, publish!   Write, revise, polish, publish!  Write, revise, polish, publish!

Meet your instructor.

Hi, I am Jody Dyer, owner of Crippled Beagle Publishing.

 

WHY TRUST ME TO TEACH YOU?

 

I’m a writer just like you!

I’m a teacher.

I’m a successful entrepreneur.


Writer

I have written and published books since 2013, but I started writing when I was in middle school. When I was growing up as an only child on a farm in East Tennessee, my favorite pastime was to read to my beagles and write funny poems and songs about my friends. 


Teacher

Not only was I raised by an educator (my mother) and a bibliophile (my father), but I also became an educator later in life. I first earned a bachelor of science degree in finance and was a mid-management banker.  I returned to school in my late thirties and finished post-baccalaureate certification in secondary education and then a masters in curriculum and instruction. I taught high school and currently teach writing courses at The University of Tennessee Center for Professional Education & Lifelong Learning.


Entrepreneur

I started Crippled Beagle Publishing in 2017 and have since helped hundreds of writers reach their goals. My team and I help people write, edit, publish, and market their books. Authors are small business owners. I will help you sell your book.


My quirky combination of creative writer plus teacher plus entrepreneur allows me to help with all aspects of an author’s journey—from your idea to your published, profitable book (and your next book).

Since founding Crippled Beagle Publishing, I’ve helped hundreds of writers tell their stories, and I want to help you.

Why struggle when step-by-step guidance from an author, editor, publisher, book marketer, teacher, and GROUP is here?
