“Matty’s practical, actionable advice was offered in such an affirming way, I came away feeling excited about tackling my next opportunity! If you’re on the fence about coaching, jump off. Matty’s a real pro." —Greta Boris, USA Today Mystery Thriller Author
Who am I?I'm Matty Dalrymple, The Indy Author, and since 2013 I've been independently publishing via my imprint, William Kingsfield Publishers.
My fiction works include the Ann Kinnear Suspense Novels and Suspense Shorts and the Lizzy Ballard Thrillers, and you can learn more about my fiction here. I also have non-fiction books for authors, including From Page to Platform: How to Succeed as an Author Speaker, Taking the Short Tack: Creating Income and Connecting with Readers Using Short Fiction, and The Indy Author's Guide to Podcasting for Authors. I've spoken at dozens of author events, speaking on topics including taking control of your author career with indie publishing, how to succeed as an author speaker, podcasting for authors as a host or guest, co-authoring, indie publishing your short fiction, pitching for promotion, and many more. And I'm the host of The Indy Author Podcast, giving me the opportunity to interview hundreds of experts in the writing craft and the publishing voyage. |
Why work with me?What sets Chart Your Course apart from traditional writing coaching or technical tutorials is the focus on holistic author career planning. While others might help you get the words on the page or teach you how to use specific platforms, I take a bigger-picture view. Our aim is to equip you with the tools and insights to captain your author career. I help you balance your creative desires with practical business strategies, ensuring that every move you make helps you reach your desired destination.
Whether you’re looking to grow an audience, develop your author brand, or explore income diversification strategies, I'll be your compass as you set sail on your independent publishing voyage. |
