What is Protagonist Crafts?

Author Katri Soikkeli writing a book by hand

Hello, new friend! If you’ve always wanted to write a book, you’ve come to the right place. Even if you’ve tried and failed before, or even if you have no idea where to start, Protagonist Crafts will help you write your first book, your next book and your best book from start to finish.

Let me introduce myself

I’m Katri and I’ve been writing stories ever since I taught myself to write. I am now a published author and a creative writing teacher, I help my fellow authors perfect their novels and I make useful and inspiring digital products for writers.

Although I’m an author now, I was hardly born an expert and I’ve made A LOT of mistakes with my writing after the first fateful sentence I wrote. (Which, by the way, was “I am Heart Pony” under a drawing of one of my My Little Pony toys. After that, I started writing a story about a castle, which was cut short because technically I still couldn’t read. Mistake number one.)

I am a person just like you, with a passion for writing fiction, an unquenchable desire to learn more about the craft of writing and a knack for explaining concepts that others might find difficult. I can assure you that even if you don’t have a degree in creative writing, if you have a busy life full of responsibilities or even if you’re older than you think you should be to write your first book, you can find guidance at Protagonist Crafts. Because your story might become someone’s favourite book.

How I can help you

If you’re interested in having me write for you or if your novel needs developmental editing, you can contact me at hello(at)protagonistcrafts.com and we can see how we can work together.

I teach creative writing classes and workshops in person and online, and if this is something your audience would be interested in, I would love to work with you. I can teach any part of the novel-writing process but I don’t talk about publishing or getting published.

You can find my digital products on Etsy or you could enrol in my beginner writer course.
