Writing a book was only the beginning.

Now comes the part no one told you about:

publishing, marketing, and building a career that actually lasts.

Genres I specialize in working with:

Romance

Sci-Fi

Fantasy

Romantasy

Literary Fiction

YA

Historical Fiction

Romantic Suspense

Mystery

Thriller

Let’s Create the Author Career of Your Dreams!

Maybe you’re:

  • A debut author staring at the blinking cursor after typing “The End,“ wondering what comes next.

  • A midlist author with a couple of books published, trying to figure out why you’re not making enough sales to go full-time.

  • Or a six-figure author ready to find new readers and let someone else map out your marketing so you can get back to prioritizing your writing.

Wherever you are, you don’t need to do this alone.

I’ve been behind the scenes of bestselling author careers, guiding writers through their launches, marketing strategies, and business growth.

Now, I’m here to do the same for you.

Marketing & Sales Strategist for Fiction Authors

Story Nerd. Solution Finder.

I started out as a VA for fiction authors, but quickly realized most writers didn’t just need admin help. They needed strategy, clarity, and a partner who understood both the heart and the business of writing.

That’s why I founded Story Flow Solutions: to help authors stop guessing and start building sustainable careers.

Today, I help new authors confidently publish and market their books through the Story Flow Collective, and I partner with high-level authors through Story Flow Studio to scale their readership and revenue without burnout.

Proven Strategies. Real Results.

This isn’t theory—it’s strategy that works. Here’s a glimpse at what my clients have achieved:

17K+

New Subscribers from One Author Swap Strategy

By implementing a single, well-timed author swap, one client grew her list by over 17K highly engaged readers—without spending a dime on ads.

47%

Higher Ad Performance Than Industry Average

One client's $10/day Meta ad has been outperforming similar campaigns since April—bringing in 1,000+ new subscribers and growing her list with ease.

4,000+

Preorders at Full Price

Instead of discounting, we tested a full-price strategy for a new release—and landed over 4,000 preorders and $20K+ in revenue before launch day.

12,279

Downloads on a Single Promo Campaign

With under $600 spent on targeted promos, one free book offer brought in nearly 12,500 new readers to kick off a bingeable series.

Every other week, I send cozy, strategy-packed notes to your inbox with publishing tips, marketing ideas, and real talk on what it means to build an author career.

Two paths. One goal: help you sell books and build a career you love.

Build Your Author Career

Story fLOW Collective

You’ve written (or just published) your first book — but now you’re stuck. You’re overwhelmed by marketing advice, unsure which publishing path to choose, and tired of wondering if you’re “doing it right.”

The Story Flow Collective is your step-by-step roadmap to:

  • Build your author brand and voice

  • Plan and publish with confidence

  • Market and sell your books strategically (without relying only on social media)

  • Think like an authorpreneur from day one

Go from confused and stuck to confident, strategic, and ready to sell books consistently.

Scale Your Author Career

Story Flow Studio

You’ve proven you can write books and sell them. But now? You feel spread too thin. Your marketing isn’t connecting with new readers. And your sales have plateaued.

Story Flow Studio steps in as your business partner + strategist.

Together, we’ll:

  • Clarify and refine your brand across platforms

  • Define smart sales goals (based on real data)

  • Engage your readers with content, newsletters, and launches that work

  • Discover new growth opportunities (ads, collaborations, reader magnets, podcast features)

  • Build systems so you can focus on writing — while my team executes behind the scenes

Go from plateaued and overwhelmed to structured, scalable, and free to write again.

What We’ll Build Together

When we work together, we’ll move beyond “just getting your book out there.”
