WRITE YOUR BOOK

High-Touch Guidance from a Publishing Insider

Shape a Book That Agents, Editors, and Readers Will Say “Yes!” To

If you’ve ever found yourself saying…

• “I want to write a book, but I’m overwhelmed and don’t know where to begin. I really need help.”

• “I have so many with ideas, which is the right one to start with?”

• “I want to write my book, but life gets in the way and I never find time.”

• “Marketing my book sounds intimidating—I’m not a marketing expert. I’m a writer. How am I supposed to do both?”

• “I’m not sure if I should self-publish or pursue a traditional deal. What’s the best route for my goals?”

This mentorship program was designed just for you. It is my goal to help guide you from uncertainty to clarity, from half-finished dreams to a completed manuscript—one that’s ready to make a real impact.

What Makes This Mentorship Special

1. Hands-On, High-Touch Mentorship
This isn’t a self-paced course or a peer-led group you’re left to figure out on your own. As your mentor, I’m fully engaged—reading your work, offering in-depth feedback, and equipping you at each phase of your journey. You benefit from direct access to my industry expertise, ensuring you don’t waste time on guesswork or generic advice.

2. Publishing Gatekeeper & Decision-Maker
I’m not just an author giving writing tips. As a publishing professional—one who’s been on the front lines of acquiring, editing, and green-lighting proposals—I know what it takes to get agents and editors to lean forward and say, “Yes, we want to publish this.” Whether you want a traditional deal or an independent path, I’ll help you craft a manuscript that stands out in a crowded marketplace.

3. Faith & Inclusivity
My mentorship integrates spiritual discernment with industry know-how. I prioritize diversity, champion underrepresented voices, and create a supportive environment where every writer’s story is honored.

Your Book-Writing Roadmap

1. Idea & Vision

• Refine the Heart of Your Message
  Pinpoint the precise idea your audience craves, so your book resonates from page one. You won’t wander in the dark—I’ll guide you with hands-on exercises to nail down your focus.

• Align with Industry & Calling
  As a publishing decision-maker, I know what agents and editors are looking for. Together, we’ll shape your vision so it’s both spiritually rooted and market-ready.

2. Manuscript Coaching

• Get Personalized Feedback (No Middlemen!)
  This is high-touch mentorship, not a DIY course. I’ll read your work, offer detailed feedback, and troubleshoot challenges with you every step of the way.

• Accountability & Progress
  From chapter outlines to completion, you’ll have structured goals and check-ins. No more unfinished drafts gathering dust—you’ll keep moving forward with clarity and confidence.

3. Publishing Strategy

• Insider Secrets to a Standout Proposal
  Harness my 20+ years of publishing expertise to craft a proposal that agents and editors can’t resist. Learn exactly what makes them say, “Yes, let’s publish this!”

• Tailored Path: Traditional or Independent
  Unsure whether to go for a book deal or self-publish? I’ll walk you through each option, highlighting what’s best for your unique goals and timeline.

4. Platform Building & Marketing

• Develop an Authentic Author Brand
  We’ll pinpoint your unique strengths, faith-driven message, and inclusive voice to build an audience primed for your book.

• Confident, Non-Pushy Promotion
  Worried about feeling salesy? You’ll learn to market your work with grace, setting up key relationships, speaking invitations, and online strategies that expand your reach—without compromising your values.

5. Launch & Beyond

• Turn Your Book into a Movement
  Plan a launch that isn’t just an event but a catalyst for meaningful impact—attracting media attention, reader buzz, and long-term success.

Why I Created This Mentorship

I know what it’s like to carry the weight of a book idea without the clarity or tools to write it. I also know the tremendous power that comes when those words are finally put on the page.

With 20 years of experience in publishing—working with best-selling authors, emerging voices, and writers just like you—I created this mentorship to give you what I wish every writer had: a proven process, professional guidance, and a supportive community.

This course isn’t just about writing a book—it’s about writing the book you were meant to write.

Write Your Book cohort #1 alum

Jevon Bolden is nothing short of extraordinary! As an agent and mentor, she combines her deep publishing expertise with an unparalleled gift for guiding writers through the book development process. 

Her Write Your Book Mentoring Program is a transformative experience for any aspiring author seeking to craft a meaningful and impactful manuscript. One of the most valuable aspects of Jevon’s mentoring is her ability to help writers uncover the heart of their message. Her insights were invaluable in helping me focus on areas I might have overlooked, such as word choice, the flow between sections, and the emotional journey of my audience.

Her step-by-step approach, encouraging demeanor, and genuine passion for helping authors shine made the writing process less intimidating and infinitely rewarding. If you’re looking to write a book that truly resonates, I can’t recommend Jevon Bolden and her mentoring program enough! Her program helped me take my manuscript from a collection of ideas to a cohesive, reader-focused narrative that I’m incredibly proud of.

If you're looking to write a book that not only reflects your passion but also has the power to impact lives, I wholeheartedly recommend Jevon Bolden's mentoring program. It’s an investment in yourself, your message, and your God-given vision.

Thank you, Jevon, for helping me bring my dream to life!
