Meet the Author

I’m Vanessa Collins, Publishing Coach, Business Strategist, and creator of The Monetized Author Framework. I’ve worked with hundreds of authors who’ve poured their hearts into their books, only to feel stuck when it comes to actually building a business around them. I know the frustration of chasing book sales and wondering what comes next because I’ve lived it.

After turning my own book into a six-figure business through digital products, coaching, and automation, I realized the missing piece for most authors isn’t passion, it’s a plan. That’s why I created this framework: to help purpose-driven writers like you go beyond book sales and build a brand, business, and income that matches the power of your message.
