“Live interaction with a writing coach clarified much of what I had learned previously with ‘real world' application of these principals. Similar to how an internship focuses prior book/classroom learning.”

You want to be published and actually sell books. Yet you're not confident about what you should be doing next. The process is overwhelming when you're not sure which parts you simply don't know about. But the first step to a marketable book is writing a strong story. And in the "Word Wizard's Journey: Turn Your Story Idea into a Marketable Book," I will guide you through each stage.
It's an age of content overwhelm, and more books are being published every year. But do you know what I'm seeing?
Yet... writers feel stuck because of all the options. They want to publish, but keep spinning in circles on their first chapters. OR... they jump on publishing so fast that their characters' voices "drip with condensation" and they miss crucial consistencies in their plots. Still, they try to do it all ON THEIR OWN.
#1. A novel-length project feels REALLY hard
Even love of the story isn't always enough when the process feels so vast. How do you know what you don't know?
#2. Too many options (methods, editors, oh my!)
It's a blessing...and a curse. More options means more choices to get stuck on, and procrastination creeps in!
#3. Impatience + overwhelm leads to rash decisions
It seems better to hit "publish" in the moment and just get the book out there than to make sure it will actually sell... and who has the time or money for that?
#4. Getting help feels like a loss of control
Authors worry their story won't be THEIRS anymore.
None of those reasons have to be your reality.
#1
The process does not have to feel so big when you know the steps and take them one at a time.
#2
You can make more informed and efficient choices when you align your process to your goals.
#3
You'll save more time and money by making sure your book is actually solid.
#4
Your book will always be YOUR book. You are its AUTHORity and can choose what advice to take or discard.
Writing a high quality book doesn't have to be overwhelming, and getting help doesn't mean you'll lose the YOU in your book. In fact...
You'll actually enhance it!
