The Right Help at the Right Time, on Budget

Tanya Freedman

Since the mid-90s, I’ve run passionate, successful creative businesses—from importing European antiques to founding the fully-booked Jolly Good Art School and Camps. After conquering breast cancer twice, I channeled my energies into traditional publishing, authoring the national bestseller “Start & Run An Art Teaching Business”.

Now, in addition to teaching and creating art, I organize fun paint nights, tambourine painting, and run creative and fun charitable fund raisers.

I’m also a certified Interior Designer, and have helped many to stage their homes to sell for more, and have decluttered and organized many homes.

I wear several hats to help people like you transform their passions into reality.

Book Editing: I only take on 1–2 select book projects a year to guarantee unmatched, dedicated quality results.

Specializing in: Transformational, uplifting biographies; relationship help, and inspirational self-help.

My latest venture was to create a children’s book, Rusty’s Home in June 2026. It is garnering many wonderful reviews from all over the world.

Rusty's Home, Print Book

Note when buying from Amazon only the Ebook and Paperback are from my publishing company. If you' prefer Hardback copies please contact me for a better price.

Sometimes the smallest friends have the biggest hearts.

On a bright and busy farm, Rusty, the kind and friendly rooster wonders… where do I belong? Am I special? At sunrise, Rusty awakens his friends and sets off on an adventure to discover what makes them all special. Along the way he learns about his own purpose and that his special gifts have been within him all along. Can a little rooster save the day and become a farmyard hero? Rusty’s Home is a heartwarming story that helps children explore purpose, self-discovery and gratitude—reminding us that we are all unique, shining our own special light in this world.

Such a talented Artist, and Supportive Coach

Tanya Freedman is such a talented artist, and a supportive coach in all endeavours.

She designed my beautiful website—www.katefreiman.com—and also created an exquisitely rendered matt for our ketubah, as a 50th wedding anniversary gift from my husband.

Tanya has walked me through blogging about my family’s holiday traditions, my novels—https://bookviewcafe.com/bvc_author/kate-freiman/—and my sometimes quirky outlook on life, sharing her insights about what my site’s visitors will enjoy. I don’t post a word on my site without her approval!

Anyone needing an intelligent, sensitive, perceptive writing coach need look no farther than Tanya Freedman. If your ketubah sits in a simple, unadorned frame, do explore the gorgeous examples of her work dedicated to turning a traditional marriage contract into a work of art. If you have youngsters in the family, they’ll love Rusty’s Home, the uplifting tale of a little rooster seeking to learn his place in his community. She is a multi talented artist who obviously loves what she does.

The Best Book Coach and Publisher

Thank you for your wonderful help with the editing and publishing process on my book Love, Care and Share. When we met I had made the decision to start my book and had 68 pages completed. You inspired me to make the decision to finish and it exploded to 204 pages. You held my hand and walked me through the minefield called the publishing industry. Your attention to detail while honouring the passion and my vision of this project was extraordinary. I appreciate how your guided me through all the stages of writing, editing, publishing and even creating a virtual home for my book: I am very happy with the website you developed for my book and the setup of all the Social Media, and an amazing trailer video for the book!

I highly recommend Tanya to any aspiring or established author who has a story to tell. She will protect you as owner of the product as well as ensure that you pay a fair price to take your book to publishing.

Very thorough and professional

You are a very good editor. You know how to draw the best out of an author. Thank you for all you have done.

Tanya, I believe you are the reason I waited so long to finish my dream. I doubt that 18 years ago, your offered methods and resources were available the way they are now. Internet, e-mail, cell phones, digital publishing, websites, Dropbox sharing, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, ‘virtual’ everything. The list is endless. It now makes it all easier and yet more overwhelming. Your guidance for me to expand on certain subjects, your suggestions to add more of this and that, and all your expertise makes my work so much more meaningful and exciting.  Thank you, Tanya, for expanding my horizons on so many levels.
