The Business of Writing

You may have wondered if you have the talent to be a professional writer, and just don't know how to go about selling yourself and your writing.

Or, you may wonder if you could really earn an income if you made the effort.

If you don't try you will never earn anything.

If you're busy and don't have the time to research your options, this course will give food for thought.

One creative writer who became a freelance journalist, while waiting to write his great novel, wrote more than a million words of news reportage in five years, all published, paid for, and read by hundreds of thousands of people.

With the Business of Writing you don't have to buy text books, or attend courses, or watch a TV programme, or listen to a show at a given time.

The daily emails arrive in your chosen inbox for you to decide on when and where to open and study them.

You can store them in a special file, or print them off to build your own blueprint on the way forward.

It's your Business, you decide on when, where, and how fast or slow you take it.

The emails are sent on each working day for twenty working days with the weekend free for reading and contemplation.

So, in one month you will learn how to run a full-time Writing Business, or you may decide to keep the day job and run a part-time Writing Business until you are ready to make the change to full-time writer.

As an added bonus, we are available for email consultation on your writing business for 60 days from the sending of your final module.

You could face the coming year with a new determination to run your own Writing Business, it's up to you. We will help.
