About

I'm Ifeoma Nwekwo; a driven project manager whose nonfiction book led her to speak on national television, host several live events and launch an online business - doing work she loves for people she admires.

As a nonfiction ghostwriter, book coach, and editor, I’m dedicated to helping experts at all levels write and self-publish brilliant nonfiction books that multiply their visibility and impact.

With a writing style cultivated over 15 years of immersing myself in nonfiction literature and informed by my own journey as a self-published author, I know what works and what doesn't when it comes to self-publishing a book that compels readers to buy and positions you as an authority in your field.

So if...
- You know you want to write a nonfiction book that'll establish your expertise and multiply your impact but you don’t know where to start
- You’ve started writing your authority-building nonfiction book but you’re doubtful it's good enough to make you stand out in your industry or
- You’ve completed your book manuscript and you need an excellent editor to take your manuscript from good to great

send me a message now so we can discuss how we can work together to bring your nonfiction book to life.

But before then, here's a gift from me to you, my FREE 'Self-Published Author Blueprint' -->> https://bit.ly/SPAblueprint

Rooting for you!
