My name is Tamelynda Lux and I'm an author, editor, and project manager.
For over three decades, I have invested the majority of my career supporting individuals as a life coach and then evolved my private practice to include hypnosis for life issues and concerns. Editing has been a paid hobby for as long as I remember but when the pandemic hit, it became the focus of my career.
I always had a book inside of me, thinking one day I'd write that book. I procrastinated for ten years , but with a coach and accountability partner it only took one month of focused writing and another couple months to edit, format, and publish it. My first book made it in time for my fiftieth birthday! What a day that was as I held that first book in my hands, seeing my thoughts in print, my name and photo on the book—exciting, energizing, and a winning feeling, just begin to express how I felt. My birthday party and book launch was one of the best celebrations ever!
Fast forward to 2020, and I wanted to write a book on a topic I was relatively new to but I didn't think I had enough content to fill a book. And, I didn't want to procrastinate another ten years.
There's a an easy way to become a published author.
The multi-authored book approach is the answer to easily becoming a published author. That's what I did and I can show you how to do it too!

Don't have a group of peers you want to pull a book together with?
That's okay because we are always LOOKING FOR INTERESTED AUTHORS who want to join a multi-authored book project that we initiate. Sometimes, a book starts with a theme and we seek chapter contributors; other times, a book's theme comes together from topic suggestions or chapter ideas.
A book can potentially earn you additional income from new clients, speaking engagements, and contract or consulting jobs, along with these benefits: 1) It establishes expertise. 2) It sets you apart. 3) It can open doors. 4) It can bring new business. 5) It is a great marketing tool.
What's included – One chapter authored by you (2500-4000 words); chapter template and writing guide;
photo and bio to appear on the final page of your chapter; writing coaching and support; professional editing and publishing services; Amazon publication of the book; product copies and additional inventory for purchase; marketing and public relations coaching; and more.
Investment – There is a financial investment per author. There is lots of support and coaching throughout the process.
Application Process – The application process starts with completing and submitting an application and then attending an interview via Zoom. After that conversation, if deemed suitable, detailed documents about a specific multi-authored book project with a theme related to your topic of interest will be sent to you.
When you work with Tamelynda you get more than a book editor...
“I was very impressed working with Tamelynda on completing my book. She did a wonderful job of editing, including rewriting and restructuring sentences and making suggestions that not only made sense but enhanced the reader’s experience. She is dedicated to the process and goes the extra mile and it shows in the reviews the book is receiving. When you work with Tamelynda you get more than a book editor, you get a writing advisor. I look forward to working with her on future projects.” ~ W.T. Hamilton, author of The Promise (Amazon)
Update 2021 . . .
"So grateful to announce that my book, The Promise won another award! This means a lot to me because I really stepped out of my comfort zone and took some big risks in the way I wrote this book.
I had a vision of how I wanted it to be and I followed through with it. I want to thank Tamelynda Lux for editing this book." W.T. Hamilton, author of The Promise (Amazon)
