MEET KRISTEN

Kristen Moeller, MS, has been a force in the fields of psychology and personal growth since 1989, with behind-the-scenes experience in the book world since 2010. She began as an acquisition’s editor at Morgan James Publishing, then served as the executive publisher for Persona Publishing, a boutique self-publishing imprint. Most recently, Kristen is a literary agent at Waterside Productions, the literary home of luminaries like Eckhart Tolle, Neale Donald Walsch, and Jean Houston.

Now, Kristen runs Read Literary Consulting, where she supports authors at all stages of the writing and publishing process. With her background as a therapist, her experience as an author, and her expertise in publishing, she excels in guiding authors through the complexities of the publishing world while providing much-needed encouragement.

Kristen is intimately familiar with the challenges of being an author. She ventured into the world of nonfiction in 2008 with her first book and has since released two more titles. A three-time TEDx speaker, she’s appeared on NPR, ABC, NBC, Fox News, and in the New York Times and Huffington Post. Kristen also co-starred (with her husband) in an episode of Tiny House Nation after losing her dream home and possessions in a devastating wildfire in 2012.

Still living in the mountains of Colorado with her husband and two pit bull rescues, Kristen is dedicated to helping the next generation of storytellers find their voices and navigate the often daunting world of publishing.

  • I would not have been able to do it.

    "Kristen provided expert guidance that allowed me to conceive of, write and self-publish my first book. Without her assistance, I would not have been able to do it. She coached me through the creative process, held me accountable to specific writing goals, and helped me fashion a bestseller campaign that ultimately resulted in my book becoming a #1 Amazon bestseller when it was released. Kristen knows each step of the book writing process intimately, and masterfully imparts this wisdom to others who dream of becoming an author."

  • A Difference Maker of the highest order.

    "I've had the privilege of knowing a number of special-hearted people in my life - many of whom are writers - all of whom share several difference-making qualities. They are authentic, vulnerable, and willing to be transparent to serve and tend to other hearts in need. They have a sixth sense when it comes to "seeing" those hearts and speaking directly to their unique needs. They have been "tested" and shaped by life experiences that would have defeated a less courageous and resilient soul. They derive joy from giving and watching others thrive under their tutelage and patient eye. "

    Don Blackwell, Esq., Counsel, Bowman and Brooke, author of Dear Ashley: A Father's Reflections and Letters to His Daughter on Life, Love and Hope

  • Thank you for making it possible to get published!

    “I thank my writing coach and mentor, Kristen Moeller, of Author Your Brilliance who teased this book out of me as she does for so many writers. Kristen, your unwavering support of this project made me believe in myself in a way that wouldn’t have been possible without you! Thank you for believing in me and making it possible to get published.”

  • Thank you, Kristen!

    "Watching Kristen work with my wife Inga has been a delight. She has brought out the best in Inga’s expression and raised her confidence to a level I am proud to say is producing the memoir I have seen in her for years. It seems like they are always having so much fun - while getting work done too. Thank you, Kristen."

    Jack Canfield, co-author of Chicken Soup for the Soul® and The Success Principles

  • She was steadfast, a true champion for my unique voice, a warrior for the great in me!

    "Kristen came to me like an angel on a mission. I heard her speak at the Association of Transformational Leaders and my heart responded to her words, “I am looking for women who are called to share their legacy” It was the quality of her presence that spoke to my heart. I didn’t even consciously know that I longed to tell my story. But her voice sought me out cold. Thank you, Kristen, for your belief in me, for your companionship, your love, and your guidance."

    Inga Canfield, author of the upcoming memoir - Stepping Out of the Shadows

  • She will fight for you!

    "I am deeply grateful for Kristen’s support, encouragement and inspiration. She is a fellow seeker and writer, friend, nurturer – and MY AGENT! She believed in me and my book, and I am forever grateful to her for that. If you are lucky enough to have Kristen as your agent, hang on to your hat because she will fight for you, your message, your words, and your dreams!"
