Coaching, community, and publishing services for authors of soulful nonfiction
Let’s move the world forward with your words.
The message in your heart is needed more than you know.
Supporting the entire journey of book creation
for self-publishing authors.
We’re pretty passionate around here, and one thing we feel strongly about is that quality “self”-publishing doesn’t mean you’re on a solo ride.
At Ink Worthy Books, you’ll find a foothold no matter what stage of the writing journey you’re in. (Yes, we really mean any stage.) From a dried-up well of inspiration, to “hey I have this idea,” and “can we set up my ISBN number,” all the way up to “let’s assemble a five-year book anniversary promotion plan!”
You don’t have to do it all by yourSELF.
Sigh of relief, right?
A term coined by our fire-starting founder, Danielle, soulful nonfiction is the genre for books with a powerful message sourced from the heart and SOUL. These are books rooted in hard-earned expertise, boiled down into gold wisdom nuggets that move readers from a passionate, mission-driven place.
Soulful nonfiction works hold the words that will move the world forward—the words that will reshape our human evolution.
These books leave a mark on the innermost part of the reader—their soul—and forever change how they experience life.
The authors of soulful nonfiction have weathered storms, spun gold threads from silver linings, been “around the block” a time or two… and have been utterly transformed by the paths life has led them on.
Sound like you?
If every author waited to write until they “had it all figured out” (aka, they knew exactly what they wanted to say and exactly how to say it), then we’d all have completely empty bookshelves.
Your message is like clay, it can only take shape when you start playing with it.
Here’s what others have said
after jumping into this transformative
(and yes, playful)
unknown:
Before working with Danielle I wouldn’t have considered myself a “writer” because I had NO IDEA the full process of publishing a book. I felt excited about what I wanted to write but after attempting to do it on my own I felt a little discouraged with my lack of direction and understanding of the publishing world. I was so relieved when I stumbled upon Danielle because she gave me really clear direction on how to get my book written and published. It probably saved me YEARS. My only regret is not finding her earlier. I had tried on my own for almost two years and failed but Danielle had me ready to publish within four months! My book is published now and I’ve sold over 100 copies in the first week.
I have absolutely no doubt in my mind that I would not have published a book without Danielle’s support. She brought to the table everything I needed: the skills (editing, formatting, etc.), the process, the book-writing knowledge as well as the encouragement, the emotional support and the cheerleading. I came to Danielle with an idea, a relatively small idea, and she pulled more out of my head than I knew was there. She guided me through a process that, for me, was overwhelming and full of unknowns. She allowed me to pause when my confidence needed to catch up. And she held me accountable when I needed to just sit down and write. The end result is a book that I am extremely proud of and I am so very grateful to have had her guidance.

Book writing is an alchemical journey, a transformation of your life’s silver linings into soul-shaping gold for the collective.
When the dark of the world threatened to extinguish her inner spark, Danielle viciously fought to keep it lit. In her own right, Danielle has experienced many of the struggles her clients have written about—breaking the bonds of generational trauma; surviving and thriving through teenage motherhood, divorce, and single parenthood; coming home to her truth buried under the chaos of the outside world; learning to love herself as a strong, powerful, and deeply feeling woman; and discovering and trusting that spark within that asks her to courageously show up, every day, and walk the path she was meant to walk in this lifetime.
She built Ink Worthy Books to protect that same spark that calls creative souls to write.
Through an intimate community membership, private book coaching, comprehensive publishing services, and an astrologically inspired subscription box, Danielle, along with her word-weaving team of experts, supports self-publishers in bringing their soulful nonfiction works to life.
Here, your unique soul and distinctive wisdom are warmly welcomed. Here, your words are the invaluable torch, guiding the world back to what it means to be human.

Hard truth incoming!
(Sorry not sorry!)
Yeah, we said it, but hey, we also know how to fix it! If you’re not quite ready for editing or coaching support, get started with our free revision guide instead!
There are no shortcuts to bringing a book to life. It becomes easy when we stop looking for the easy way around the hard work.
Self-publishing is not a DIY industry. To get to the finish line, you need support!
We value relationships over transactions and connections over “getting the book done quick.”
The soul of a book matters far more than accolades and shiny gold stars on your cover.
Of course what you have to say has been said before. But it’s never been said by YOU. #TheMagicKey
“Quick” and “cheap” are two words you never want to hear from your editor.
The world is waiting for you, dear friend.
(We’ll make sure you land on your feet!)
