Early decisions matter more than you might think

The beginning of a book shapes everything that follows.

If the foundations are vague, the whole process gets harder. You spend longer second-guessing the idea, rewriting sections that were built on shaky ground, and trying to force momentum without real clarity.

And in a world where AI can generate endless ideas, the challenge is rarely a lack of options.

The real challenge is knowing what is actually worth turning into a book.

Write Now helps you make that decision earlier — with a trusted method, a clearer path, and stronger judgment about what matters — so you do not waste months on the wrong book, the wrong angle, or the wrong structure.

Write Now helps you start the right book, with more confidence and less wasted effort.

What you'll leave with

By the end of Write Now, you’ll have:

  • a clearer book concept you can actually move forward with
  • a stronger sense of who the book is for and why it matters
  • better judgment about what to write — and what not to write
  • early structure and meaningful starter writing
  • a clearer sense of your next step.

Inside, you’ll use the Write Book Method to strengthen the foundations, shape the right non-fiction book, and build momentum in the right order.

Write Now is not the flagship Expert Author Community experience, and it is not a high-touch coaching program.

It is a guided starting point for people who want to stop circling and start properly.

What 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
"The curriculum helped me reshape my book, and the resources here are fantastic. The recorded sessions are a treasure trove of knowledge."
Tony Frost
Author of 'The Professional'
“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
"The structured curriculum is a game-changer for organising thoughts. The EAC team create a safe space that truly believes in your potential."
Justin Clarke
Executive Coach - Seniour Technology Professional
"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
Author of 'Why Things Feel F*cked'
"The power of this method is when your ideal reader sends you an image and confirms that what you have written has resonated with them so deeply - it's life changing (for you and them)."
Author of 'How to Listen'
“The EAC provides support, guidance, a proven framework and the expertise to help you create a book.”
Penelope Barr
Author of 'Win the Night to Win the Day'

What to expect inside

From Kelly Irving Founder and creator of the Write Book Method

The Write Book Method

A step-by-step curriculum to help you shape the right book, make stronger decisions, and move forward with more clarity.

Write for readers, positioning and commercial relevance.

Remove the overwhelm of where to start or what to do next.

Turn ideas into a clear, compelling structure.

Move through planning, writing, publishing, and marketing your book.

It's helped hundreds of authors move from confusion to clarity — and create books that grow brands, open doors, and do real work in the world.

A clearer place to start

Inside Circle, you’ll find a clear path based on your stage, with practical tools, sessions and resources to guide you.

Path 1 — I don’t have a clear idea yet.

Path 2 — I have multiple ideas and need clarity.

Path 3 — I have an idea, but need direction.

Path 4 — I’ve started, but need to finish or make it stronger.

Path 5 — I’m writing memoir or narrative non-fiction

The goal is not to make you consume everything. It is to help you focus on what matters most first.

FAQs

Answers to common questions.

How is Write Now different from the full EAC intake?

Write Now is the starting point. It helps you get clear on the right book and strengthen the early decisions. The full EAC intake is the deeper flagship experience, with live coaching, broader community access, accountability, feedback, publishing guidance, and more hands-on support.

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 primarily support non-fiction authors across areas like business, leadership, personal development, health, memoir, narrative and ideas-led books.

How does my credit to the EAC Intake work?

When you join Write Now, your $497 payment becomes a credit toward Intake 5 of our Flagship EAC Intake, starting in November 2026.

Do I have to have a book idea first?

No. Write Now is designed for people with no clear idea yet, multiple ideas, or a project they have already started but want to strengthen.

Can I join if I've started writing?

If you already have notes, a draft, or a half-formed manuscript, Write Now can help you step back, strengthen the foundations, and work out what needs attention next. That might mean refining your structure, clarifying your reader, sharpening your positioning, or focusing on the later phases of the Write Book Method.

Will there be opportunities to connect with the wider EAC world?

From time to time, yes. Write Now members may be invited to selected opportunities such as events, open houses, or in-person moments. These are additional touchpoints, not the core of the Write Now experience.

Is Write Now a membership that can be cancelled?

No. Write Now is not a membership that can be cancelled. Write Now is a guided starting point to help you shape the right book, strengthen the foundations, and build momentum.

What kind of support is included?

Write Now includes light-touch guidance fromChristine, our Community, inside Circle. She is trained on the Write Book Method and can help you know where to start, what to focus on next, and how to use the experience well. It does not include deep editorial feedback, live coaching, or high-touch support.

How long do I get access?

You’ll have access through November 2026, when the next Flagship EAC intake begins.
