A Nine-Week Course

Many people have great story ideas, but don’t know how to put them down on paper. Many others start writing their novels, but quit halfway, mostly because they are confused about the entire process and don’t know where to go with their writing, or how to complete it.

Aspiring writers wrongly believe that published authors came with an idea, wrote it down from A to Z in their first manuscript draft and voila, a bestseller was born. This is a common misconception among new writers. Fiction writing is overwhelming, even for bestseller authors. The difference is that established authors may suffer less during the process because they have the proper writing tools, while new authors spend most of their creative time struggling with the writing process, than actually working on developing and writing their novels. Embarrassed to ask for guidance, many writers just abort their projects unaware that good writing alone doesn’t produce good fiction. To become a fiction writer, you need to develop your skills in, yes you got that right, writing fiction.
