I'm Ana 

I am deeply committed to demystifying Gen AI and empowering aspiring writers to finally bring their dream of becoming a published novelist to life. Take it from someone who’s been there—becoming a published author can transform your life in ways you can’t even imagine. And here’s the kicker… there has never been a better time to be a writer.

 

“Writer, let me hold your hand and usher you into the next Golden Era of Storytelling.”

The Symptoms of Creative Writers 

Isolation – it’s a lonely process with little accountability

Lack of structure for an effective methodology that produces 1-2 books a year

Managing Creative Anxiety & Impostor Syndrome

Not understanding the end to end literary journey from idea to publication and waisting years on what should be done in a handful of weeks.

“A book should be finished in a season.”

~ Stephen King

"There's never been a better time to be a writer."

More About Me  

Madrid to Miami – Born in the art-soaked streets of Madrid, I landed in Miami at seven. Storytelling runs through my veins, and adventure is my default setting.

Silicon Valley Survivor – I didn’t just work in tech—I helped scale software companies to multi-million-dollar success while navigating a boys’ club that underestimated me. I proved them wrong—over and over again.

Novelist, Mother, Chaos Conductor – Single mom, demanding 9-to-5, and an unrelenting urge to write? I thrived in that storm. Now, I help writers break through the overwhelm and finally finish their novels—with confidence, clarity, and creative freedom.

Poker Player at Heart – Fiction isn’t the only place I play the long game. As an avid poker player, I know when to hold ‘em, when to fold ‘em, and when to go all in—at the table and in life.

Beatles or Bust – My love for The Beatles runs so deep I named my son after Lennon. They weren’t just a band; they were the original Emo pioneers.

Boston Terrier Chaos – My fiery little ginger Boston Terrier, Mordecai, is equal parts adorable and unhinged. No writing session is ever too peaceful.

Epic Love Story in Progress – Met the love of my life in a way so cinematic, I have to turn it into a novel someday. Nicholas Sparks, take notes.

Writing is Oxygen – 35 novels waiting in the wings, and I’m just getting started. Writing isn’t a hobby—it’s who I am.

Writer’s Dream Life – If I could swap places with any fictional writer, it’d be Erica Barry from Something’s Gotta Give—ocean views, cozy sweaters, and a life draped in words. Absolute goals.
