WHAT'S INCLUDED?
Captions
to connect
BEST FOR: building close relationships with your readers.
These personal prompts and captions give your readers a glimpse into what lights you up by showing them where and how the magic happens – so you can turn followers into friends.
Captions
to intrigue
BEST FOR: getting readers excited (even before your book is written).
These creative prompts and captions help you talk about your work in progress in fun and attention-grabbing ways so readers are desperate to buy your book as soon as it’s published.
Captions to
cultivate community
BEST FOR: creating a community of fellow fantasy & sci-fi fans!
These conversation-starting prompts and captions are designed to build a vibrant community for readers who share your passions to be a part of.
Example prompt
'Share some of the fun ways magic, technology or supernatural abilities make the lives of your characters easier (or more frustrating). Ask your readers how they would use this ability if they had it.'
Note: all prompts come with a suggested ‘call to action’ – and all templates come with a suggested ‘hook’ and ‘call to action’ – for maximum engagement.
Example template
Is magic/Are superpowers a blessing or a curse? It depends who you ask…
For example, if you were able to _____ [ability] like _____ [character name], you could _____ [do a boring task] in a fraction of the time!
But then again, she/he/they also has to put up with _____ [a downside to this ability].
_____ [character name] would tell you having _____ [power] is the best because you can _____ [awesome thing you could do]. But she/he/they might forget to mention that they also have to _____ [downside to this ability].
Knowing this… If you had one of these powers, would you use it? And what would you use it FOR?

“Oh my freaking god! There's so much! … Honestly, I don't think I even realized how much I got for the money … 150 captions? That's almost selling it short. There's like an infinite amount of possibilities with those captions.

“The text practically wrote itself and I kind of even enjoyed it! Lol. And used some of that for my Stories. Thank you! Looking forward to diving into the rest of it.”

Once upon a time, I too dreamed of being an author… until I accepted that my real skills lay in helping other authors realize their visions. So I became an editor. But what happens to a manuscript after editing began to bother me.
Most of my clients told me they thought writing a book would be the hardest part. Instead, it turned out the biggest challenge was getting that book into the hands of the right readers.
And the thought that your book might not find its way to the readers who are going to love it..? Yeah, I'm not ok with that.
So I manifested a new dream.
With quick and easy tools and templates, I help authors like you reach your ideal readers without sacrificing writing time – and I even help you have fun while you do it!

faq
Can I use these caption prompts and templates outside of Instagram?
Your templates have been written primarily for Instagram posts, following our Caption Cocktail formula. But the caption prompts can absolutely be used for Instagram Stories, Reels or TikToks, and even newsletters, blogs or Facebook posts. The Trello board even includes color-coded tags to keep track of your different platforms.
I don’t want to sound super ‘salesy’ – will this kit help with that?
The trick is to build excitement for your book while you’re still writing so that when it’s published, you won’t have to ‘sell’ because your readers will already be desperate to buy! That’s why there is a whole section in your kit devoted to fun and creative ways to talk about your book (while you're still writing it) without ‘selling’ it.
How will this kit help me build relationships with my readers?
It’s important for readers to feel like they know the real person behind the books, so your prompts focus on fun and natural ways to give them a glimpse behind the scenes of your life, share personal insights and start conversations with techniques like easy-to-answer questions, controversial topics, shout outs and requests for recommendations.
Are these templates suitable for all SFF writers?
Absolutely. I have been very careful to give you options in every caption template so whether you write fantasy or sci-fi (or any off-shoot SFF genre), you can adapt the caption to be appropriate for your books and your readers.
If I use fill-in-the-blank templates, won’t my captions sound impersonal and generic?
Each template includes so many customization options that no two captions could possibly be the same.
What if I’d rather not have fill-in-the-blank templates?
Then the more general caption prompts are perfect for you. However, if you ever suffer from blank page syndrome, looking at the templates purely as examples of what’s possible might just inspire you!
I am not tech savvy at all… is this kit hard to use?
Not at all. Whether you prefer to print out your prompts or you want the full Trello experience, I have included step-by-step instructions for the format of your choice. And you can always message me with questions.
How long will I have access to my caption kit?
Once you download your PDF or make a copy of your Trello board or Google doc, your prompts are yours forever! And the really cool thing is that although this kit already contains 150 prompts, you can use most of them multiple times, in different ways. So you can actually create waaaay more than 150 captions.
Do you offer refunds?
As this is a digital product with opportunities to download all your content, you can't ‘return' your caption kit so I'm sure you can understand why I can't offer refunds. But if you have any difficulties or questions about how to use your kit, I am always available to help!
