Every successful modern novel is written by an author who deeply understands interiority and emotionality

Because, yes, your premise might get readers to crack the book open...

But it’s connecting with the characters that keep readers turning pages, staying up way too late, and shoving your novel into their friend’s hands saying, “You have to read this!"

This Class Will Help You...

✅ Finally understand what interiority and emotionality actually are. No more second-guessing or wondering if you’re “doing it right.” You’ll know exactly what they are, how they work, and how to use them with intention.

✅ Know how to layer deep interiority into every scene without slowing your pacing. You’ll learn a simple, repeatable method for adding interiority in a way that feels natural, fluid, and fully integrated into your story.

✅ Create emotion in your reader in a sophisticated way that makes them feel like they’re in safe hands. No more naming emotions and hoping they land. You’ll understand how to use interiority, language, and context to generate real emotional impact that makes agents sit up and take notice.

✅ Feel completely confident adding deep interiority without second-guessing yourself. You’ll know exactly where to add it, how much is enough, and how to avoid going too far so your scenes feel rich, immersive, and balanced every time.

What Writers Are Saying About Heather's Coaching & Curriculum

"This class was fantastic. I also love how she teaches. The long, in-depth lessons broken up with walkthroughs, practice, examples, and feedback on students' work make everything click in a way shorter formats never quite manage. And the way she answers questions is so clear and pedagogical. Now I'm just looking forward to all the lessons still to come."
Marita B.Writer
"The class provided a usable and repeatable structure for writing and revising scenes. I am looking at them now from a whole new perspective and it has been eye opening.  No more having to ask myself if the scene lands, if it has the tension it needs. I am using the knowledge gained from the class to evaluate and rewrite scenes to ramp up that delicious tension - and my characters are all the more interesting for it. I already see an improvement in my writing and the skills gained will only continue to deepen and strengthen my work. I learned so much I couldn’t wait to sign up for the next class."
Jane W.Writer
"There is a lot of information out there, but Heather manages to find a way to distill it in practical, digestible chunks which I can immediately apply to my own work. I enjoy her classes and also the positive energy she brings which encourages me to keep going! I hope I can work more with her in the future and encourage any aspiring writer to do the same."
Nina K.Writer
"Heather is a brilliant book coach for speculative fiction writers. She's bursting with great ideas, she has an incredibly in-depth and mature story sense, and she is so well-read. She keeps in mind the many story models out there without ever hewing to one, helping you understand how to best develop your story. Her insights into my story are always delivered with kindness and "you can do this" and I have yet to disagree with one comment she's made. I could not write this novel without her. Don't hesitate to work with her."

"I cannot say enough about the value I have received from working with Heather over the last six+ months. I have been able to evolve the startings of a pretty cheesy fairytale that I didn’t think had much potential to a full framework/story arc and ~70 pages of good, thoughtful content and scenes. My characters are interesting, my story is relevant and the theme feels important in a way that it fully lacked when I got started. The tools and tips are provided in a way that meet the particular writing challenge in the right way to be useful and implementable. She effortlessly provides high level guidance and nitty gritty grammar commentary and it is all helpful through the process. Before I met with Heather I felt alone in a cave, wondering if there really was a way out or if I should give up. With Heather, I have had a guide through the darkest, gnarliest challenges a new writer faces and it feels good to have faced the challenge to grow as a writer under her guidance."
Katrina G.Fantasy Writer
"I wholeheartedly recommend Heather Davis as Book Coach to any author working on a manuscript, whether it's their first or fifth. Her insight and knowledge about great narrative and her passion for getting to the deep heart of your characters is invaluable. She brings an objective eye to your work to determine the strengths and weaknesses while offering a wealth of strategies to help you forge ahead with greater clarity. Heather's coaching has been pivotal in helping me overcome specific writing challenges and continue to progress towards completing my manuscript, all the while reminding me to celebrate the little victories achieved throughout the process. When you think you can't keep going or your self-doubt is threatening to sabotage your writing - Heather is the motivator and cheer squad you need."
Karen EastwoodAuthor
"I couldn't be happier with the approach that Heather took with me when I was looking for book coaching for my romantic-tragedy novel. Her knowledge, expertise, helpfulness, and creativity were indispensable in getting me out of a creative rut and cut to the heart of my story. She has a deep understanding of character motivation and backstory and her open-ended questions helped me resolve plot logic and come up with further plot points without losing the core of what I wanted to say. Heather was there to provide much-needed encouragement and inspiration that had allowed me to fall in love with my story all over again. I'll carry her thoughtful, considered approach with me for whatever lies ahead, and I am grateful for her passion, intuition, and support. I made more progress during our first video conference call than I had in the previous 18 months!"
Stuart WakefieldAuthor
"When I first decided to follow my crazy dream to write a novel, I thought I could do the same thing I had done when writing poetry or short stories – just start writing, and everything would fall into place naturally. It doesn’t happen like that for novels. I found out after scratching out a few pages of great words that didn’t go anywhere. After fighting with impostor syndrome and myself, I looked for a book coach, someone who could help me make my words become a novel. When I “met” Heather Davis online, it all fell into place. Her style, her caring, and her energy made me know she was my guide. Heather is tough, but caring; she won’t baby you as you write, but she will genuinely get involved and help you GROW as an author. I have never regretted my choice!"
Jim WeemsAuthor
Interiority! Emotionality! Conflict! If you want to up your game, Heather will show you how to sift these critical concepts into your writing like cinnamon into butter. I'm so pleased with the transformation her help has wrought upon my third novel, I plan on enlisting her to resurrect (languishing in its drawer) my second!

Hi! I’m Heather. I’m a certified book coach, developmental editor, podcaster, summit creator… and fellow writer.

You want to create a novel as powerful as the ones you’ve read. The kind of story readers become obsessed with and talk about for years.

The kind they stay up way too late reading. The kind that makes readers cry on TikTok, draw fan art of your characters, and create subreddits shipping your protagonist with completely the wrong (but oh-so-right) person.

I want to help you get there.

There’s a seat for you in this workshop if you’ve been:

❌ Writing characters that editors, beta readers, and critique partners keep telling you feel flat, forgettable, like cardboard cutouts.

❌ Rereading your scenes and wondering why your characters aren’t nearly as interesting on the page as they are in your head.

❌ Adding italicized thoughts and hoping you’ve somehow nailed that elusive “interiority” everyone talks about.

❌ Telling us your protagonist is afraid, or overjoyed, or furious, and crossing your fingers readers will feel it… while secretly knowing they won’t.

❌ Holding back on interiority because you’re worried it will slow the pacing.

❌ Feeling unsure about where to add interiority—and how to tell what’s enough versus too much.

What you'll get inside:

✨ Three 3-Hour Live Classes packed with real examples, clear explanations, and aha! moments you can immediately apply to your own scenes. (That’s 9 hours of delicious, robust, writing-altering content!)

✨ Printable Workbooks with powerful exercises that help you take what you’re learning and put it right onto the page.

✨ Copies of All Slides so you can keep every key takeaway handy for future drafts.

✨ Lifetime Access To The Course so you can revisit the replays, slides, and workbook whenever you need a refresh or a spark of inspiration.

✨Bonus: Scene Review Giveaway Three lucky participants will win an in-depth scene review focused on how they’ve implemented the interiority and emotionality framework I teach in this course. I will review at least two of these live during the third session of the class.

Ready to Turn Your Story Into an Obsession?

They’re the kinds of stories readers press into their sister’s hands and say, “You have to read this.”

When you learn how to use interiority and emotionality with intention, everything changes.

Your scenes stay with readers.

Your characters feel real, vivid, and impossible to forget.

Your story becomes something readers don’t just enjoy—they share.

Quick FAQs (Because I Know You’re Wondering)

What if I cannot attend the live sessions?

No problem. Everything will be recorded, and you will receive full replays along with all slides and worksheets. You can learn at your own pace and return to any lesson as often as you want. 🌻

Yes. You will have lifetime access to the replays, slides, and printable workbook. You can revisit everything whenever you need a refresher or a spark of inspiration, no matter where you are in your writing journey.🌻

Heck yes. Interiority is interiority. The same emotional depth that makes a novel immersive is exactly what makes a short story or memoir unforgettable. When you layer in clear, purposeful interiority and emotionality, your writing becomes sharp, powerful, and deeply felt… the kind readers can’t shake long after they’ve finished. 🌻

Yes.

In my experience, almost every writer I’ve ever worked with has room to deepen their interiority. Even when the foundation is strong, there’s almost always another layer to go.

You might already be using tools like italicized thoughts, memories, or contextual backstory, which is a great start. But interiority isn’t just about including those elements. It’s about how they’re used to shape meaning, deepen connection, and create a powerful emotional experience for the reader.

That next level is what transforms a novel from good to unforgettable.

And it’s often the difference between a story that readers and agents admire and one they can’t stop thinking about. 🌻

No. Submitting a scene does not guarantee a review. However, it will automatically enter you into a chance to win one of two live scene edits that I will go over on the third day of the class. If your scene is selected, you will receive an in-depth structure-focused review during the live session.🌻
