Hello! My name is Patrice Coke and I am a published children's book author, former teacher, with a background in editing and marketing.
My background blends teaching with writing expertise with audience-focused promotion.
Because I also have a marketing background, I marketed my own book and increased discoverability through book events, speaking engagements, growing mailing lists by 90%, and boosting launch sales by 95% so books reach readers and generate income.
I pair my teaching and my experience as an author, with simple, actionable systems like the digital products I have recreated removing guesswork and sustaining momentum. I teach clear steps authors can follow confidently to build visibility, strengthen brand, and grow long-term sales. And, for teachers, I design worksheets and packets, as supplements that make teaching the curriculum more enjoyable.
My approach blends classroom-tested scaffolding, explicit modeling, and quick formative checks so teachers can implement lessons with minimal prep. The result is focused creativity: students write organized, compelling stories with confidence every day.
