Hi,
I'm Ann
A writing coach, author, speaker, and host of the "Ann Kroeker, Writing Coach" podcast, I work with clients one-to-one, through programs and courses, and through Your Platform Matters (YPM), my platform membership program.
My website offers loads of writing-related content, which has landed on The Write Life's annual “100 Best Websites for Writers” list every year since 2016.
I leverage over three decades of experience in the writing and publishing world to support writers looking for input and confidence to advance their careers. My clients have achieved personal goals, landed contracts, hit bestseller lists, and won awards.
I've presented at conferences, retreats, and summits; coauthored On Being a Writer: 12 Simple Habits for a Writing Life that Lasts; and authored Not So Fast: Slow-Down Solutions for Frenzied Families and The Contemplative Mom.
I'm thrilled to bring you this free course as my gift to you.
Writing is my deep joy and coaching is my great passion.

My writing coach gave me tools to package my communication—like a framework to organize my ideas—and they're coming together and impacting my work. I've advanced to the next level as a coach in my business, and I've led trainings that had greater reach and brought in more business because of those skills.

Simply click through the "Enroll for Free" button to create a Teachable account (or log in if you already have one), and the system should drop you directly into the content.
You won't see me in this course, but you will hear me as I explain the various types of sentence openers using a slide deck to illustrate and describe. You'll get a feel for my upbeat, positive personality, which I bring to my one-on-one coaching sessions as well as group coaching in my membership and courses.
This free course is a gift to you, and I sincerely hope you benefit from it. Not every course ends up being what we hope for or expect, though. If you don't like it, feel free to let me know. I may try to improve it and as I expand to offer additional content, I'll listen to your input.
You can explore all the ways to work with me, both free and paid, on my Everything page. This free course is listed on that page along with one-on-one coaching options, my courses—including my book proposal program (Your Compelling Book Proposal, YCBP), and my platform membership, Your Platform Matters (YPM).
