A what?
I am so glad you asked!
A book strategist is a strategic publishing partner—one who understands both the business and the message and crafts the movement your book is meant to lead.
Your book isn’t a hobby project or something to “finally get off your list.”
This is the signature book that shifts minds, opens doors, and gets your best-fit clients to say, “How do I work with her?”
You’ve already built the framework. You’ve taught it in rooms, recorded it on Voxer, and prophesied it into your clients’ lives. Now it’s time to put it in print—with strategy, excellence, and Holy Spirit alignment.
Whether you’re weighing traditional or hybrid publishing (or still deciding if you’re really ready), I’m here to help you make the right moves—not just the next ones.
I bring the strategy, publishing clarity, and done-for-you execution that turns your God-given message into a lead-generating, legacy-building, authority-cementing book.
Because when your book is built right, it doesn’t just tell your story.
It builds your stage.
Hi! I'm Dr. Carolyn Wiley, and I’ve been a published author for close to 20 years, with a traditionally published textbook that generates 7-figures in sales annually. But let me tell how I became really passionate about this work.
My mom—a wonderful writer (and yes, I’m biased, but I’m also right)—decided to publish her book. She hired a hybrid publisher, thinking they’d help bring her God-inspired vision to life.
Spoiler alert: it did not go well.
They couldn’t see her vision. Over and over, they told her, “You shouldn’t do it that way—that’s not what sells. Readers don’t like that.” Translation: “We’re going to cram your beautifully unique, round book into our cookie-cutter, square format because it’s easier for us.”
Her book wasn’t some plug-and-play project that fit neatly into their mass-production templates with minimal editing and zero creative effort. Her book was special. It was inspired. And they just didn’t get it.
Cue the late-night phone calls. She’d call me in tears after yet another confusing email, another rejection of her request to make a change, or just another round of unnecessary frustration.
I’d had enough!
So, I did what any writer-daughter worth her salt would do: I teamed up with her. We co-authored a book and published it ourselves.
And guess what? Now, our books sell out at the speaking engagements we do. Clearly, there are readers who want her uniquely round book—despite what the “experts” said.
Moral of the story? Sometimes you’ve got to take control to make sure your voice and your vision stay intact.
