The Publishing Freedom Collective (PFC) is a group coaching program that gives members access to Michelle Zink coaching services in a cost-effective manner. As a member of the collective, you’ll be taken through the same process as private clients to get your arms around the indie publishing industry, how it works, and how best to leverage your time and talent to achieve your desired publishing outcome.

“I was skeptical to make the leap from traditional publishing, but after working with Michelle, I was able to pay for my kids’ college tuition through my self-published works alone. There’s nobody who understands the business better than Michelle Zink.”

— Author and Editor Gaby Triana

Each group coaching session covers one topic plus a Q&A session, and the monthly workbook allows you to create a winning publishing strategy designed around your unique strengths, goals, and challenges.

“After being a successful trad and indie author for many years, I reached a point in my career where I needed to reevaluate/rework/reinvigorate. After just one coaching session with Michelle, I had a long list of new strategies that left me recharged and inspired. If you’re feeling lost or hopeless about where you are in your publishing journey, Michelle can help!”

— NYT and USA Today Bestselling Author Virna DePaul

"Michelle Zink's coaching came at the right time in my author journey. I spent the first year and a half trying everything to see what would work, and Michelle helped me see through all the clutter. I loved our talks, covering everything from writing to ads to branding to profitability. She helped me see that my books needed to have a consistent brand on the covers, to re-write my blurbs, to price my books where I'm being fair to myself and my work. She gave me the courage to try out Facebook ads, and really to become more mindful of every action I take with an eye toward being profitable.

Before Michelle, my author journey was all over the place, but after our coaching sessions and homework, I was able to hone in on what is most important to continue my author growth. I highly recommend Michelle Zink — she'll be the author bestie and fairy book mother you need!"

—- Zee Irwin, USA Today Bestselling Author
