12 MONTHS - HOW DOES IT WORK?

You will be supported all the way to write your first draft. Then rewrite and finish your book using a tried-and-tested method and a writing coach. 

 

For the first few months, we will follow the clear writing process outlined in the book Write Your Book in 100 Days. This is a process othat ver 180 authors have used to write and publish for over 17 years.

 

It is solid and methodical.

 

Depending on what you enjoy in a creative process, you can join the group of authors travelling a similar journey, or you can work solo with your mentor (but can dip into the group sessions for discipline and connection).  You will move down the path to publication,  but the writing journey is your own. 
 

You will be on a fixed and structured course with lessons and tasks that will bring together the architecture of your book. This is a very structured programme with a series of emails, calls, and key lessons over the next few months, and will take you all the way to a solid first draft within the first few months.

​

Once your first draft is complete, we will start the process of review and refinement.

​

You will work with a mentor and meet every 4 weeks to review your work and to keep your book on track, and make sure you are meeting your word count deadlines.

​

We expect updates every 2 weeks in the initial planning phases. As you move into the writing phase, you will be required to complete a scene or chapter every two weeks for review and input.

 

We make the dates

We want you to put in the time - so we have a number of group writing dates

​​

Every single Wednesday, we have an (optional) scheduled writing group for 4 hours, which will push up your word count and allow you to write in community and connect with your mentors and other authors. 

 

Every month we have a monthly 'At Home Writing Binge' of three days of solid writing, 7 hours a day.  

​These are all part of the mentorship structure. ​
