Love what I get to do and that words on the page translate into epic fantasy tales!

Hey, if you’re a writer who wants to stop getting rejection letters from publishers, keep reading.

Clickbait first line? Yeah I know. But hang with me for a bit if you’re interested in getting your novel into the hands of your readers.

I’ve been writing novels for ten years. And the first four years were… rough.

I wrote super slow.

I didn’t know what my future readers wanted from my story.

And I felt really awkward about telling people about my books.

Zero readers. No direction for my story. And struggling to get words on the page.

That’s where I was.

But I didn’t give up.

I made lots of mistakes, spent a lot of time figuring out what I was doing wrong, and kept writing my books…

Only to discover that I was still not connecting with readers and making sales.

Then I reached out to an author friend who fixed it. He showed me how to write quickly, how to write in a way that connected with my readers, and how to market my book (without bugging my friends and family).

If you’re serious about writing, publishing, and selling fiction, I’ve got a ten minute video for you to watch.

Head to sellyourfiction.com

I’m trying to compress ten years of writing, publishing and selling down into ten minutes of content for you.

It’s going to be super valuable.

Check out the video only if you’re serious about pursuing your publishing career!

As always,

Enjoy the journey!
