· Character development

· Some of my personal tips

Editing is a very important step too, so we’ll touch on:

· DIY editing

Finally we offer some thoughts on trouble-shooting:

· That Elusive Muse and Writer’s Block.

So at the end of the day you are getting:

· The combined experience of 3 Authors poured into;

· 24 mini-modules of hard-learned experience;

· Lifetime access to the course;

· 5 downloadable resources; and

· Maybe a bit of fun along the way.

I look forward to seeing you in Module 1, Preliminaries.
