Meet your instructor

Hi, I’m Krista.

I teach self-publishing because I’ve built real books, earned real royalties, and learned what helps authors keep moving.

With more than $100,000 in Amazon self-publishing royalties, a 17,000+ follower YouTube audience, and a 2,000+ member author community, I’ve helped beginners make sense of a process that can feel overwhelming at first.

I’ll help you see the full path clearly so you can build a book you’re proud to put into the world.
