Plan Your Novel Starts March 1st!

February 22, 2019
Oakland, CA

Hi Friend,
Welcome to our new readers and students I met recently at the San Francisco Writers Conference. It was a joy to teach you about the 21 senses to enhance your writing and editing and about crafting compelling characters.

Story is powerful. Story is all around us and with us from the beginning of our lives.

Not sure what exactly draws me to write stories. I only know that from a young age I wanted to tell them, write them, but didn't know how.

Perhaps because it was hard I was drawn to wanting to master story telling.

Perhaps because I'll never truly master this art is why I persist, and why I teach the art, craft, and business of writing novels. (Yes, I admit -- I love a challenge.)

Why do you want to write your novel? Why do you want to write stories?

Hit reply and let me know.

If you have been waiting to write your novel, but didn't know where to begin, and are ready to start now, I invite you to join us for our upcoming Plan Your Novel class

Enrollment closes Feb. 28th. And class starts March 1st.

More about the course:
  • Hands-on support to help you develop your story with two experienced authors/teachers (me and my thriller author husband, Ezra Barany) with over 30 books between us!
  • A step-by-step approach that you can adapt to your needs and creative process.
  • A proven method that hundreds of authors have used to write their first novel and beyond, including unfinished stories. We use this process for every novel we write.
  • Lifetime access to the course so you can refer to the material with your next book.
  • Membership to a community of dedicated writers because it takes a village to succeed as an author.
BONUS: The live course, only offered twice this year, comes with "Create Compelling Characters" and "How to Choose Your Story Structure: The ins and outs of five powerful storytelling structures."
