Meet Your Coach
Hey there! I’m Kristin Melville, an Author Accelerator book coach dedicated to helping fantasy authors turn epic ideas into finished books-without losing the plot.
I started the Inkbound Writers Circle because too many fantasy writers feel unseen and lost in the tides. Creators like you deserve support to plot, plan, and prepare for success!

Frequently Asked Questions
Heartbeat! It is a private community to allow you to connect with other members, access exclusive trainings, and track your writing progress! After purchase, you’ll be added to the platform
On the first week of each month, Fantasy authors in the Circle gather for a one-hour Zoom call to keep you motivated and connected with other fantasy writers. The first 30 minutes take place in Breakout Rooms to review your goals and celebrate even the tiniest victories! Then the last half is for open Q&A, focusing on craft like developing characters and worldbuilding, or mindset like staying on track when everything feels wrong.
From Children’s to Adult, LitRPG to Romantasy, writers of all stripes can find common ground here! Even if you write other genres as well as Fantasy. The content and workshops in the Inkbound Writers Circle will focus on more unique topics like worldbuilding and magic systems, but the principles of self-publishing are universal!
While most content is live on Zoom, there are plans to include other resources for members to use! Prerecorded Q&As, exclusive trainings, and author interviews are all options! Current members can give suggestions on what’s necessary so we can build a growing resource to support all indie Fantasy authors!
While live sessions won’t be recorded, you can still track your goals with the group’s monthly tracker! Plus, everyone will receive weekly reminders to stay focused between meetings. With enough interest, more live meetings can be scheduled. Stay tuned for the full schedule!
It's time to thrive together as indie Fantasy authors!
