Hey, there. Christina Kaye here. I'm the Founder/CEO and instructor at Book Boss Academy. And I've been in the publishing industry, both as an award-winning indie author and working behind the scenes for publishers and agents, for 15 years. And in that time, I've learned what it takes to not just write a great book but to also successfully self-publish and market it.
In January 2020, I walked away from a secure (albeit stressful) career in the legal field to pursue my passion full-time, which is teaching, supporting, and encouraging authors along their self-publishing journeys. I do this through one-on-one coaching, group coaching, online courses (like these), and digital/downloadable resources, like templates, tutorials, and guidebooks.
I've designed the courses I list here on this site to be affordable, targeted, and easily digestible because I know how hard it is to find the time, resources, and money to invest in your author career, even when you know it could be a total game changer.
So, be sure to bookmark this page and check back frequently, as I plan on adding a new mini-course each week. And you can always follow me on social media (Tik Tok, IG, FB, and Pinterest) @BookBossAcademy and watch for announcements, as well as my daily tips, tricks, and advice!
"I felt totally taken care of..."
Throughout the process, I’ve been consistently impressed with how accessible Christina and her team have been to answer my questions and provide support. From her coaching and editing services, to her marketing advice and her resources, I felt totally taken care of. The process was so beneficial, I came back when it was time to write and publish my second book. Now that I’m working on my third, I know I’ll come back to Christina and her team again and again.

"Christina Kaye absolutely inspires!"
The absolute best thing a coach can do for an author is to inspire, and Christina Kaye absolutely inspires! Her prices are competitive and her turnaround times are prompt. She was worth every penny I spent and more, and she’s the coach and editor I’ll turn to from now on. She still checks in on me from time to time, just to see how I’m doing and what I’m working on next. I feel very fortunate to have discovered Christina.

"She gave me a sense of pride in my work..."
Christina is polite, professional, and engaged. She showed sincere interest in my book from the beginning, and never tried to change my vision for it, which was reassuring to a new author. She gave me a sense of pride in my work, and I couldn’t ask for a better person than Christina Kaye to guide me through my first self-publishing adventure, and I cannot thank her enough for her support.
