Let's be honest:

The hardest part of writing isn’t the writing

It’s the part where your brain whispers:

'I should be further along.'

'Everyone else is doing better than me.'

‘If I stop now, at least I won’t fail later.’

This course won't write your book for you

But it will help you keep going


The Inner Game of Writing is for you if…


✅ You want your inner voice to feel like a teammate, not a judge

✅ You want writing to feel meaningful, not like a test you have to pass

✅ You want to feel like you belong in the creative world—not stuck outside it

✅ You’ve got the talent and you know you can do it, but sometimes you wobble

✅ You’re ready to build a writing life that feels sustainable, not just impressive

Imagine this...

✨ You sit down to write—and it feels doable, maybe even good

✨ You get rejected—and don’t spiral

✨ You learn how to back yourself—quietly, consistently

✨ You keep going—not because it’s easy, but because it matters

✨ You don’t have to convince yourself—you just start to believe

Hi! I'm Katherine Collette. I'm the author of The Helpline (published in North America, the UK, Italy, Germany, ANZ), The Competition and the children’s series The Too Tall Tales of Alma T Best, which I also illustrated (cartoons).

I've interviewed many many many best selling, award winning writers and authors both IRL and when I co-hosted The First Time podcast.

Now I also coach writers and authors. I help people wanting to be published and who who are published know what to do to give themselves and their work the best possible chance of success.
