Hey, I'm Dallas!
I’ve spent the past two decades immersed in the publishing industry, building my career as a best-selling author of nine books across a variety of genres. As a book coach, I have helped women around the world birth their books and live their dreams. I don’t just want you to be a published author – I want you to be a THRIVING author, confidently sharing your ideas, making an impact with your words, and owning your unique voice that deserves to be heard!

Featured Speaker at San Francisco Peninsula Writers
It was a joy and delight to be the speaker for the February meeting of the San Francisco Peninsula Writers, a branch of the California Writers Club. I gave a presentation about Making Short Fiction Your Playground for Experimentation and Innovation. What a warm, welcoming, and lively group -- the energy in the room was magical!

"There is no one in the world who could have bought this book out of me the way Dallas did. She is an absolute superstar and fountain of writing knowledge. I have such respect and gratitude for Dallas and the way she helped me bravely bring my book into the world."
–Lenore Pearson, holistic counsellor and author of SELF ASHORED: NAVIGATING YOUR WAY ON LIFE’S VOYAGE (Best Indie Book Award winner)
“Dallas’s program was just what I needed to get my book out of my head and onto paper. Every week, I looked forward to our coaching calls and her positive energy. I never thought I would be a published author, but Dallas made it happen. I recommend her program to anyone who is dreaming of writing a book. I know I will definitely be using her services again for my next writing adventure."
–Melissa DaSilva, LICSW, Executive Life Coach, and author of THE PROFITABLE PRACTICE
"The live support that Dallas offers and how she customizes it to each person is crucial to moving forward in your book. It takes you so much further than if you try to go it alone without that support. Even though this is a group atmosphere, it feels so customized and personalized, which is so important in whatever phase of writing your book you are in."
–Brianna Wilkerson, Holistic Health and Life Coach, Podcaster, and Essential Oils Advocate
