Your roadmap from messy idea to publishable plan

The Write Book Method ™

This isn’t a curriculum of fluffy modules. It’s a proven (142+ authors), battle-tested step-by-step framework that:

Gets ideas out of your head and into a compelling structure

Teaches you to write for readers and commercial positioning

Removes the overwhelm of “where do I start?” and “what do I do next?”

Supports you to launch, and relaunch, your work for maximum marketing impact.

It’s helped hundreds of authors go from confusion to confidence — and build books that win deals, grow businesses, and start movements.

The habit that turns writers into authors

Cowrite Sessions ™

It’s one thing to know what to do.

‍
It’s another to sit down and do it.

Make progress in real-time

Keep the habit alive, especially when life gets busy and too hard.

What members and
authors say

"This is an amazing space - one in which I've learned so much about myself and enjoyed being surrounded by interesting and generous people. Yes, those who really want to write a book are generous; they desire to get a message out in the world, and that's very special."

Karen Tisdell

"This is a unique community - full of smarts, loads of energy, ideas at the ready. If none of that works to get you moving forward - you have an amazing syllabus, network, feedback loops, compassionate space for encouragement, friendships to be built, co-writing spaces to join, and opportunities to test your thinking."

Karen Stein

"I really enjoyed my experience with the Expert Author Community and got a lot out of it, personally and professionally. It wasn’t just about writing the book (though that in itself was a huge achievement), it was the structure, support, and accountability that made the difference. If you’re thinking about writing a book and want to stop doing it alone, I’d absolutely recommend jumping in. It’s the real deal."

Clint Rahe

"One of the best decisions I made was to join up and share the energy and passion of this wonderful group of people! Any EAC author’s book is guaranteed to be incredible - so much passion and drive to share valuable content with the world."

Sarah Gray

"Writing a book is hard. Writing a book alone? Even harder. That’s why joining the Expert Author Community (EAC) has been one of the best decisions I have made on this journey. When things got hard (as they inevitably do), these were the people who wouldn’t let me give up. If you’re thinking about writing a book or finding your voice, I couldn’t recommend EAC more highly."

Chamara Somaratne

“I have no doubt that joining the EAC, especially following the Write Book Method, helped me to attract Wiley’s interest. The EAC resources have been excellent.”

‍

Tony Frost

“If you are interested in writing a book and want the structure, support and accountability to ensure your success then I highly recommend the EAC. At the start of the year, I committed to having my manuscript finished by the end of May. Mission accomplished due to this community.”

‍

Andrew Williams

“A heartfelt thank you to the entire EAC community for your encouragement, connection, and inspiration. A special shoutout to Kelly Irving for her incredible guidance and support throughout this writing journey.”

Emma Lagerlow

“The EAC was a blessing in that I learnt so much about how to write a book, the different publishing avenues and agreements. The community fuels a continuous sense of growth.”

‍

Shyam Barr

“Writing a book is extremely daunting. Being part of a network like the Expert Author Community means that you have the practical and moral support to get it done.”

Weh Yeoh

“Our writers community is where ideas, small and big, are percolated, shared, revised, outgrown, thrown out, revisited, challenged, nurtured, loved, turned into words and eventually published.”

Robert Andersson

“Finding and joining Kelly’s tribe was vital to my entire writing journey and the ultimate success of Running Deep.”

‍

Peter Scott

“I have a fantastic book coach, Kelly Irving who told me my initial idea needed work and pushed me to reconsider whom I was writing for and what they needed to know. Expert Author Community was a bit like my pump class and my pod people support, challenge and celebrate with me.”

Monique Zytnik

“Bringing a book into the world is best done in good company – and that’s exactly what the EAC has given me.”

Cassandra Goodman
Self-Fidelity Pioneer & Guide

“This community opened my mind and heart! I was so surprised when I joined the EAC by the diversity of amazing people in the community.”

Melo Calarco

“A community of wonderful authors led by Kelly Irving; and a shared vision to serve others. What could be better than that?”

‍

Michelle Scheibner

“The guidance of Kelly Irving was crucial, as was the inspiration I received from members of the community. Thank you to the Expert Author community that provided such great support as a few sparks of hope became a publishable reality.”

Mark Berridge

“You'll be welcomed into a thriving and very engaged group. You'll be supported and guided, to not just write and publish your book, but to launch and leverage it too.”

Laetitia Andrac

Before working with Kelly, I had grounded optimism that my book would be something of value. Now, I know it to be true.

Keegan Luiters
Presenter, Facilitator & Coach

“I have decided to join the Expert Author Community because of the caliber of the community and mentorship. Since joining I have already been connected with a superb PR agent, and this is only the beginning."

Joe Pane

“There are people you meet who transform your world by giving you a leg up (or three) to achieve your goals. Kelly Irving is one of these people. Someone who is honest, straightforward, warm, encouraging and a buttkicker when needed.”

‍

Jenny Brockis

“EAC is a unique community. The support is endless, the skills and knowledge are unmatched because of the incredible diversity of talent in the community.”

Jacqui Clarke
Writing a book will repay itself in sales, in recognition, in impact and your ability to make the change in the world you’re trying to make

‍

Denise Padin Collazo
Social Justice Leader & Mentor

“It was one of my best business decision to join the Expert Author Community. Without this ‘skeleton structure’, I would NOT have written so focused, to the point and efficiently. It was an enormous help!”

Ilona Vass

“I am not sure Career Unstuck would have finished without the help and support from this community.”

Charlotte Blair

“A safe and supportive place where all authors support each other throughout the process and sometimes the fear of writing a book. Empowering most of us to do something we have never done before.”

Allan Sicard
“Writing together is the best! The EAC provides support, guidance and friendship. And on top of all that, a framework and the expertise to help you create a book.”
Penelope Barr
Global Executive and Coach
"I am genuinely excited to step through the curriculum. I had a feeling that forming ideas and a direction was going to take longer - but its happening way faster than I had thought."
Andrew Sloan
Integrated Psychotherapist and Leadership Coach
“Co-writings are really powerful and it’s amazing how much you can get done in that short time - it always goes too fast!”
Jenny Brockis
Author of 'The Natural Advantage'
“I could not have imagined the power of writing in this way until I experienced it myself. Our fingers dance across our keyboards and then we return together to explore what we’ve experienced in those moments.”
Karen Stein
Author of 'Be Your Own Leadership Coach'
“The roadmap and formulas offered in the course materials have been instrumental in shaping my writing process, providing me with confidence in my ideas.."
Emma Lagerlow
Author of 'Worthy and Wealthy
"I did finish my first book draft in a one-week writing sprint. It does not matter if it is a book or a series of blog posts, or some newsletters prepared in advance, a writing sprint is always a great way to focus TOGETHER WITH OTHERS on doing the same - writing.
Ilona Vass
Author of 'Team Harmony'

FAQs

Answers to common questions about our Write Now program and process.

What is the difference between the Write Now program and the EAC Intake?

When you upgrade into the full intake, you’ll get additional access to:
‍
• Live coaching with Book Coach, Editor, Kelly Irving + expert publishing professionals and coaches
• EAC Book Proposal Template - fail-safe roadmap for your book and publishing decision
• Unlimited feedback on your content, manuscript and proposal
• Unlimited cowriting- focused and fun sessions hosted by members and team
• Publisher Pitch Party - receive feedback on your book from real commissioning editors
• Accountability pods - facilitated weekly small groups to keep on track
• Conversations & forums across the full Circle platform• In-person events + surprise workshops

How does Cowriting actually work?

These sessions are designed to help you connect with other members and work in a focused manner for short bursts of time.
‍
They provide accountability and motivation, making it easier to stay committed to your writing goals.
‍
Each session typically involves setting an objective, working silently together for 50 minutes or more, and then debriefing. Sessions can be run by members as well as facilitated by Community Hosts, allowing for peer learning, warm-up exercises and support.

Sessions are scheduled to accommodate different time zones, making them accessible to a wide range of participants.

Participants report these sessions are more productive than attempting to write alone.

What type of book does this work for?

We specialise in all types of non-fiction books, of any topic, genre or category - business, leadership, self development, health, travel, memoir, non-fiction narrative, you name it.

If you're a fiction writer, then there is still plenty in here for you to explore. However, we do not deep dive into specifics for fiction like character or scene development.

How does the Intake Credit work?

When you join Write Now, your $497 payment becomes a credit toward Intake 5 of the full Expert Author Community program, starting in February 2026.

Do I have to have a book idea first?

No! This program is perfect if you have absolutely no idea of what your book is, or should be. The curriculum will help you work it out and get ready for all the other steps to come, without the additional pressure of committing to the whole process, yet.

What if I've started writing, or just need marketing support?

This is a standalone program so you can dip in and out of resources as you need and choose. Need to fix your structure? Use the structure lessons. Got a book and looking for marketing help only? Focus on the final phases of the Write Book Method curriculum.

The Write Now program is the perfect starting or finishing step to any book project.
