🌟You have these great characters in your head, but they fall flat on the page
🌟You sit down to write, freeze up and end up not writing at all
🌟You have this great idea, but your book gets perpetually stuck close to the start
🌟You wonder if your book will ever become a reality
🌟Your characters are pale imitations of the ones running around in your head
🌟 Something is wrong in your book, and you’re not sure where it went wrong
Picture it. A cute local bookstore, packed to the gills with readers there for an author signing. Your author signing.
Your fans have your book clutched to their chest, smiles on their faces. A hush falls over the crowd as The Author, you, make your way to the front and takes your place at the long table.
You sit down next to the tower of books stacked up neatly on the table. You pull out your favorite pen. The one you bought special for today. Your author signing. You press down on it’s back with a satisfying click, announcing the start of the signing. The crowd forms an orderly line and squirms with excitement as they wait their turn.
The first reader’s eyes shine, revealing her joy. She slides the book over to you across the table.
“I love your book,” she tells you. “Your characters are so real, it feels like I actually know them. Like they’re my best friends. My family is sick of hearing about them I talk about it so much? When does your next book come out? I have to get it.”

This system was developed over many years of struggle trying to write a better, book faster in between work, life, and family.
And now, I’m ready to share it with you.
At last, you no longer have to settle for a pale imitation of the characters in your head.
You can create the characters you REALLY want to write about, the characters you love EACH and EVERY time.
Characters can take a mediocre concept and raise it to something special Characters are the heart of your book.

You know that book you have inside you?
The one you say you’ll write ‘later’, the one that has a few dozen pages hidden away in notebooks, or on a google drive gathering virtual dust? The manuscript you have sitting on your computer, unable to take the next step? Well, it’s time you did.
There’s never been a better time in history to be a writer. We are living through the 3rd biggest publishing revolution in all of human history. (The first two were the invention of the printing press circa mid 1400’s and the invention of cheap papers and inks during the industrial revolution; circa mid to late 1800’s)
Even if your story has been told before, no one can tell it the way you can.
And people who didn’t ‘quite get’ those other similar books will love yours. That’s why I always say the following…
🌟I don’t just teach this stuff, I actually USE it. Before I sit down to write any part of my book, I write out my characters using this EXACT system. Knowing my characters so well helps create plot point and complications I never would have thought of if tried to create my book independently from them.
🌟I’ve been in your shoes. I’m a working novelist with family and life obligations. And I learned a long time ago that if I actually want to be able to put one or more books a year and give my writing a real chance in the world, I couldn’t just wait for inspiration to hit, I had to go after it with a club. (Yes, I am a Jack London fan)
🌟I help first-time writers make their books a reality and take advantage of this brave new world of publishing. The rules of publishing have changed. The rules of great storytelling rarely do. I’ve seen my clients have success with their books once they wrote the best book possible.
🌟I’m just like you, only further ahead. I’m not someone who’s worked in the industry and who’s never written their own book before. I’m not someone with all the right advantages or connections or even a creative writing degree. (I have a BFA, but it has a sculpture concentration.) I’m a person who loves to read, loves to write and loves to help people create new books to bring to market every. Single. Day.
