Where motivation meets method. Ten lessons to take at your own pace to get prepared to write your first draft. We'll share with you our highly effective one-hour-a-day method to write your novel. A complete mindset reboot and cleanse. This is the course for busy people to achieve their ambition to write a novel and hold down a day job too.

An intense two-week period to get the groundwork prepared for writing your novel. We'll begin with the agent of change, the character flaw, and how your setting and cast serve your story's theme and you'll discover the one-word secret to create an exciting drama. You'll prepare a simple but deadly one-pager story plan that includes elements you may never have considered previously, essential to story success for readers, publishers and agents. You'll meet your tutor to work through the story plan together, get creative inspiration for story development, check the plot and get a big thumbs up. 

We build your writing confidence counterintuitively perhaps by asking you to go slow while you're putting the vital organs of your story onto the page. We'll consider who is telling the story, from what perspective, and how, the matter of 'voice' and how the location or world of your novel affects the events unfolding in your plot. You'll be introduced to some of the great writers and learn new techniques to make your writing sharper and smarter. 

Now you're really cooking, knowing what's working, and staying on track and checking in with your tutor. Your daily word count will increase as you get deeper into the story and raise the stakes in your plot. Some fierce and fabulous lessons to power you through the middle of your novel.

Game-changing insights as you approach the ending. We'll focus on the nuts and bolts of one of the greatest novels of all time to consider how to be both poet and programmer as you code your novel with sensational ideas, immersive detail and true-to-life dialogue that will make it a page-turner.
