naomi rose: book developer & creative midwife
When your genuine creative nature receives encouragement through my close listening and customized guidance,
the writing that flows from you is truly your own.
Then you are grateful to write it, perfect it through editing, and share it with the world.
This is the heart of all the services I offer.
The Book of Your Heart Matters to Both of Us
Whether this is your first book ever or you are a seasoned author, you want a skilled, compassionate human guide to support your dream of creating. This is as much a relational as a professional process, and my gift of listening will enable you to hear and recognize yourself so you write as yourself, not as some overlay you've been exposed to. I will care about your book and about you.

"Naomi provided the warm and inviting space that I needed to speak about my work and listen to the words as they emerged from within. She listened to my words before they were even shaped. She was fascinated with my ideas as I shared them with her, and this receptivity validated what I was wanting to write. She showed me how to write from my deeper Self.”—Doreen Downing, PhD, author: The 7 Secrets to Essential Speaking: Find Your Voice, Change Your Life

Ways We Can Work Together
1: Book Development & Creative Midwifery
BOOK DEVELOPMENT is like light revealing the image on an opaque photographic negative in a darkroom. Gradually, the whole picture appears. Together, we unveil that light.
1:1 sessions every two weeks, via Zoom, until your book is just what you want it to be, from spark to finish. And beyond only productivity, you get to tap into your deeper Self and what really wants to come through you as a beautiful creator onto the page. With the help of my dedicated guidance and resourcing throughout the journey, you emerge at the end with a book that you love, and a new chapter of your life waiting to open to you.

“Naomi Rose was an invaluable partner on the journey. . . . She shared my vision, and was genuinely excited about getting this book out into the world. She offered the support I needed to create the book that I dared to dream was possible! The book is now changing lives, and finding its way into homes and hearts around the world.”—Barbara Hanneloré, author, The Moon and You (Finalist, Indie Excellence Book Awards; Silver Award, Living Now Book Awards)

2: Book Writing for Therapists & Other Healers
This is Book Development & Creative Midwifery specifically for people in the healing professions.
There is nothing like being truly heard. But who listens to the listener? Who helps healers give voice to their own deeper wisdom?
This is where I come in. Being received — listened to, held, and appreciated as well as guided with your book-writing — is essential for this journey to be encouraging, reassuring, and inwardly inspired all the way. As a healer myself, I can support all of you to come into the writing process so your experience, as well as your book, is healing in its own right.
