Just wanting to let you know about our upcoming training on Wednesday. I know how things can get lost in the shuffle...
I’m passionate about point of view and work hard to help my clients’ work and my own shine in this area.
I am always looking for specific and tangible ways to make my fiction stronger, so that readers can’t put down my books.
I imagine you are too!
That’s why I’m so excited to bring you this live training soon on mastering Deep Point of View, by expert instructor, and USA Today bestselling author, Alice Gaines.

| | Upcoming Training on Mastering Point of View is Next Week! |
| This Powerful Tool Pulls Readers Into Your Story
What if you could master a simple technique to make your stories irresistible to your readers?
Even if your prose is beautiful, your characters feel alive, and your plot twists and turns -- you can still get one-star reviews complaining that your story didn't grab readers.
There’s a technique that will help your readers fall in love with your characters, so they feel your characters' emotions as the story unfolds.
That technique is Deep Point of View (POV) -- a powerful tool for pulling readers into your story.
We really don’t want readers saying that they just couldn’t get into your story.
Or that they didn’t care about your characters to keep reading.
But if you want to write your story so that your reader just can’t put your book down… that’s the power of Deep Point of View.
"Nothing else does more to make a reader love the characters or to allow her to share in the characters’ emotions [than deep point of view]." -- Alice Gaines
When you use the techniques of deep point of view:
-- Readers experience the story through your character's eyes
-- Readers are immersed in the story world, seeing it more vividly
-- Readers care more about your characters... so they care more about your story
USA Today bestselling author and experienced teacher, Alice Gaines, will show you how…
You’re invited to our…
