Applications are now open for the Prolific Mastermind
There’s no way to predict how your next novel will sell, or if it’ll even get published. Marketing expectations for authors have never been higher—or less clear. And AI has already changed everything … right?
Not so fast.
You can’t predict the future. But when it comes to your fiction career, you can write it.
You can create certainty as an author. By which I mean: You can know that a year or two from today, you will be publishing even more successfully than you are now. And in the Prolific Mastermind, you’ll learn how to do exactly that.
If you’re a published novelist (or are under contract to publish within the next year) and you’re seeking:
A clear plan that reflects what you really want for your career (not what you think you can pull off)…
A strategy for sharing your work in a way that’s easy, authentic, and doesn’t eat up all your writing time…
Support from a community of published authors who understand the highs and lows of this business…
I created this group for you.
We’ll spend six months taking strategic action and thinking even bigger for ourselves and each other—because study after study shows the same thing: When other people believe in you, your odds of success skyrocket.
Every lesson and coaching session is designed to supercharge your confidence and uplevel how you’re showing up as a novelist. And yes, to help you sell your next book … then the next one, and the next one.
If your goal is to be prolific—and take your fiction career to the next level before 2027—I’d love to work with you in the Prolific Mastermind.

Curriculum & Details
The Prolific Mastermind runs from mid-June 2026 through mid-November 2026. See the bottom of this page for the full schedule. All calls take place on Zoom.
The mastermind includes:
Six core lessons on creating a prolific fiction career (read below for the full curriculum).
Peer support and workshopping. You’ll have the opportunity to brainstorm your publishing challenges—think changing agents, prepping for launch, or pitching a new novel—with your mastermind peers in sessions and in a private WhatsApp group.
Answers to your career and mindset questions. In every session, you’ll have the opportunity to get coached by Camille on any issue impacting your writing career. One week of each month will be strictly dedicated to coaching.
All calls are recorded and uploaded into your personal membership portal, so if you can’t attend live, you won’t miss a thing.
You’re also invited to participate in a private WhatsApp group just for mastermind members.
Here’s what we’ll cover:
JUNE: Going Pro(lific): Want to create real results in the second half of 2026? I’ll show you how to do that by analyzing—then reinterpreting—your fiction career; harnessing the power of your negative emotions (hey, jealousy!); and setting goals that are aligned with what you really want.
JULY: Launch! Publishing a novel today isn’t the same as it was even two to three years ago. Publishers’ expectations have changed—and so have readers’. We’ll talk about what’s working now and how to be strategic, so you don’t burn out the moment you’re on the other side of publication.
AUGUST: Big Deal: How do you even know if your idea or manuscript’s any good? You’ll learn a simple self-analysis process to determine whether you’re sitting on your next big idea—and the single best strategy for creating magnetic confidence as a novelist.
SEPTEMBER: High-Earning Habits: It’s time for real talk about making real money as a novelist. We’ll discuss how to negotiate your next deal; strategies for increasing your fiction income in the short term and over time; the perks and pitfalls of a six+ figure offer; and more.
OCTOBER: OMG: Stop wasting time on social media and start tapping into your inner Organic Marketing Genius. This month, you’ll learn to discern between strategies that actually sell books and the ones that are just optics for publishers and your peers—then create a plan to increase your visibility to readers … without increasing your workload.
NOVEMBER: Say Yes to Success: New research shows that a shocking number of otherwise high performers hold back in the moments that matter most. The most common culprit? Mistaking success for a lack of safety. In the final month of the mastermind, you’ll learn how to break through your remaining blocks and move boldly toward your ideal future as an author.
Bonus: The Prolific Mastermind includes membership to the Q1 Career Novelists Membership. You will automatically be granted access to the group in January.
Cost: 2500 USD
(or)

If accepted, you will receive a welcome email with a link to pay with a credit or debit card via Stripe. You will also receive a receipt from Stripe for tax purposes. Always check with your tax professional, but author coaching is tax-deductible for most writers. Questions? Email team@evenbetter.co

No, Prolific is for traditionally-published, self-published, and hybrid authors. Camille (who has published traditionally and independently) will be clear when something she’s sharing or teaching only applies to one model, but most of the content is designed to apply to all published novelists.
