YOUR FIRST PUBLISHED BOOK

 

Are you a writer ready to step into your power and destiny as a successful author?

IMAGINE WHAT IT WOULD BE LIKE...

  • Walking into any bookstore and see your book—your name—displayed on the "Best Sellers" shelf.
  • Waking up every morning knowing you're doing what you love.
  • As you autograph copies of your novel at your packed book signing. 

Let's paint the picture just a little bit more... 

Your bestie just sent you a text from B&N with a picture of your book in their hands.

You can confidently plot and draft an entire juicy, drool worthy novel from start to finish with ease. You can now navigate the publishing world as an empowered author.

MAKE IT MY REALITY
You're free
TO CREATE AND FOCUS ON WHAT YOU LOVE MOST

I'm Kristin Cast, passionate storyteller, plant lover, and believer in the powers of mindset and manifestation. I’ve always been passionate about storytelling.

I'll never forget creating my Book Mastery Method. I'd just released a novel that had taken everything for me to write, and it completely bombed. I knew there had to be a way to save myself, my career, and my time. The next month, I went from giving all my free time and energy to barely making a dent in my first draft to writing with ease and confidence and spending more time with myself and my family. Since then, I've written and sold eight novels in three years.

 

I know what you need, dear writer.
You need a step-by-step process that doesn't leave you overwhelmed.

"The mindset work Kristin takes you through is really helping me make some major shifts in how I think about myself and my writing. I'm learning to prioritize my writing, which as a mom with three kids and a full-time job, is hard and also necessary.

The lessons also helped me see the power of support and alignment with how I want to feel, and, for the first time, I've talked out loud about my writing. The online community has also been amazing. It's a great place to ask questions, share breakthroughs and just get support from Kristin and the other writers taking this journey. 

With Kristin's guidance, I'm learning to trust my abilities and really see myself as writer, and it's unlocked my creativity in a way I didn't expect. I'm so grateful I found this course!"
