What would the world be like if ... ?

What would the world be like if you didn’t put your awesome stories in the world? All those people who would never get to read your stories? The culture that would be that much poorer because it lacked your vision…

Or look at things this way... There you are at the end of your days, looking back at your hopefully long and fulfilling life, what would you like to be proud of? What would you have liked to have done? How would you like to have made an impact?

If you would like one of your impacts to have been writing and publishing novels to a raving fans, and you'd like help to get there, then check out our Group Coaching Program for Genre Fiction Novelists.

Early Bird Enrollment Bonuses
We're offering an Early Bird Enrollment Bonuses to those who join our 12-month group coaching program for genre fiction novelists by December 17th.

All the bonuses are listed here and go away after Dec. 17th.


Giving Back: Help Build a Solar-Powered Well

One of my biggest concerns about the world is that not everyone has running water. So this holiday season, I donated to HydrateLife, so that a village in Nicaragua can build a solar-powered well and insure that over one hundred households have running water.

I'm impressed with this organization and the locally-run project

When girls and women don't have to spend their day hauling water, then they can get an education (for the girls) and actively contribute to the family (for the women.)

Here's a bit about their story:

Imagine that every day since you've been strong enough to carry it, you've had to spend hours walking to collect water.

For girls like those in the picture above, this may have only been a couple of years so far, but for many, it has been decades. 

This leads to the girls missing school, and as they get older, it keeps women locked in their traditional responsibilities, unable to work and pursue their dreams.

This project will put an end to this by bringing clean water directly to every home in Motuse, freeing up this time, getting the girls back in school, and giving the women opportunities they have never had before.
 
By supporting this project you can have a direct impact on their lives, and the lives of everyone in Motuse. 

Every donation we receive for the rest of the year will go towards this solar powered community based water project.

But wait.... there's more...

I'm passionate about crafting courses that writers can use to move forward in writing their books.

I want to empower you to write your novel because our stories are important and can make an impact on readers that we can't even imagine.
