Your Time
$7/month
For the price of a fancy coffee, take some time for you.
Make your dream of writing a book a reality.
Begin this exciting creative journey on Your Time.
What’s Included
Dream it.
Have you dreamt of going away for a weekend with just you and your computer and write? Imagine sitting with your friends discussing what is working and what isn’t with your story. Then think how good it will feel to put your head down and address all of the excellent suggestions your editor has made that will take your book to the next level.
Create it.
During Your Time you will walk through essential aspects of writing and self-publishing a book. It will allow you to develop a solid plan for where you are going, what the destination will look like, and how you will get there. You will prove to yourself that you have what it takes to get the job done.
Share it.
Moving from telling someone that you would like to write a book to sharing your writing with them is a big step, especially if writing is new to you. During Your Time you will move towards becoming comfortable seeing yourself as a writer and author. Through this membership you will learn how to share your message and, eventually, sell and promote your book.
Through Your Time you will receive information from my course, Make a Splash Self-Publishing: Test the Waters Before Diving In.
Here are some reviews about the training and the self-publishing work that I have done.
“I took Cindy's course Make a Splash Self-Publishing: Test the Waters Before Diving In! when it was offered the first time. Even though I was nowhere ready to publish my book (since it wasn't even written yet), there is so much information packed into each module that, when my book is ready, I know what choices I will have. Cindy's teaching style is very easy to follow and she's always available to answer questions. Don't pass on this course, it's worth every penny!”

"The self-publishing world was a far more complex place than I thought. My lack of knowledge, quickly took me in the direction of self-publishing companies which charged an exorbitant upfront cost — I was at their mercy. The day before I was scheduled to sign a publishing contract, I found Cindy’s workshop, Make a Splash Self-Publishing: Test the Waters Before Diving In. The self-publishing company went on hold, and I never looked back.
Make a Splash is an accessible, well-organized workshop. The guides and resource links are easy to follow, and the self-publishing plan is truly achievable. Cindy’s social media strategy and marketing provides a step-by-step guide. Clear instructions include how to create an author’s online presence by weaving together a professional website, author Facebook page, Instagram and Twitter.
During the weekly workshop sessions, Cindy is always professional, well prepared and provides valuable question-and-answer time. She offers choices for do-it-yourself publishing, or finding the right professionals to work with you all with the consideration of an individual’s budget. This workshop delivered on every aspect.
After completing Cindy’s workshops, I went from feeling apprehensive to confident in my decisions to create, launch and sell my story. My budget included funds for support so I promptly hired Cindy as my Self-Publishing Consultant. The daunting task of self-publishing my book became fun and exciting! With the knowledge I had previously learned in Make a Splash, and Cindy’s assistance, I felt empowered to make the many decisions needed in self- publishing my story.”

“I can warmly recommend Cindy Folk as a website designer who is knowledgeable and easy to work with. She has a good sense of esthetics and worked with me until we found the right elements for setting up my site. I was impressed with her helpful blend of flexibility and timely turnaround to meet my needs.”
— Gail Madjzoub, writer
“I'm so thankful I found Cindy's course. It has everything a new author needs to be able to self-publish. This course is worth every penny, and saved me so much time. By telling me what to avoid, it saved me a ton of money too. I'd already half-written a book, but I haven't been able to get it published. I'd actually previously gone through a course (which was much more expensive and I had to wade through multiple hour-long videos!) - and Cindy's course provided so much more, at a fraction of the cost and in a fraction of the time. I could finally spend time actually working on my book instead of trying to find what I need, and right now my book is being formatted and about to be printed and put on Amazon. Her course has the exact steps laid out so clearly. Her PDF guides and resource links were also very helpful. She also gave me so many ideas on how to launch my book. I highly recommend this for anyone who has a book idea in their head but is struggling to get it out there to the world.”
