Adventures in Writing Nonfiction
A roadmap for writing a book people want to read
A self-paced, video-based online course
$297
If you’re tired of piecing together bits of information you find from articles, blogs, and one-off workshops (I know I was), Adventures in Writing Nonfiction is an all-in-one solution. You get step-by-step instructions, but, more importantly, you get a proven structure, inspiration, and the confidence to get your book done. There is even a free trial to get you started.
