Course Description

New lectures added May 2021 (4 hours extra of training!)Have you ever thought of writing your own book?
This course is for those of you wanting to create non-fiction books - to successfully share your story or knowledge with the world...
Do you have something that you really want to share that you know will help others but you feel overwhelmed about the process, the cost, or you are just not sure where to begin?
I remember when I wrote my first book (15 years ago) - staring at a blank page on my computer while negative thoughts flooded my mind reminding me of all the reasons why I couldn't write. Maybe you have had those thoughts too...
I am happy to say that 15 years later I am so glad I didn't listen to those voices, and I am now a best selling author of many hard copy books and ebooks. Some of them much to my delight are even No. 1 best sellers on Amazon. More importantly, I have discovered much joy and satisfaction in sharing my knowledge and story with others. I want to show you the exact steps I have used over and over again to create, write and market my own books.
In this course, you will discover my 8 phase book writing formula which includes:
Foundations Nailing your purpose and core idea;The writing phase which includes simple tips to write well, and also includes how to overcome writers' block;The editing phase and process;Typesetting your book;Designing your book cover (or choosing a designer);How to get endorsements and reviews for your book;Printing and digital distribution where I will show you how to get your book loaded up on to Amazon for hard copy printing and Kindle for digital downloads;Marketing and distribution this is where I will show you how to promote your book, and I'm even going to reveal my exact strategy for how to get your own book to No1 on the Kindle store.
In addition to my 8 phase formula Iwill share:
Budget and how much your book may cost;Explain the important reasons for writing a book (which will give you the confidence to not only start but finish);How to overcome writers block;Other options and income streams that you can leverage after you complete and release your book;PDF's you can print out;A checklist to keep you on track;All my notes;I'm also available in the discussion board to answer any questions you may have.
Now, if you don't understand some of the terminologies I have just used don't worry! (I have been there, which is why I will also explain each phase in detail and why it's important in making your book a great success.
If you have a story to tell (and I believe you do), or if you have some knowledge you want to share with the world, then this course will help you achieve your dream of launching your book with success. I look forward to seeing you in the course and being a part of your journey.
Who this course is for:
People who want to share their life story or knowledge on a particular topicThis course is for those wanting to write a non-fiction bookThis course is NOT for those writers who want to write a fiction novel. (Although marketing principles can still be applied).
Beginner to advanced writers who want to increase their skills and also their marketing plan will greatly benefit from this course.

Was unaware of the elements that go into making a book sound/ look professional. Very helpful information. Also, the reasoning given for each suggestion is very good and coming from personal experience. Lastly, very inspiring and personalised style of presenting. Seems as if I am being personally spoken to and encouraged.

By Stephanie du Toit on 8/5/2020

Extremely insightful.

By Jemma Hall on 8/4/2020

I had never thought of publishing before and didn't know that information on cost so was very helpful. But I am more trying to focus on getting my story out there just at present. I thought this course was more focused on writing not digital set up and printing. Grateful for the extra information may have to come back to this when I have finished just basically writing my book to start! Also there was no 'Live' i could not find a group chat either so was a little confusing
