We\u2019ve been studying the craft of books for over a decade, and we\u2019ve learned the books that succeed aren\u2019t just the ones that are well-written: they are the ones who understand what their audience wants and presents the plot, story, material or information in the ideal structure.<\/p>\n<p>Most<strong>&nbsp;non-fiction books&nbsp;<\/strong>we receive have no unifying theme, organic progression of ideas, vulnerable shares and stories to hook interest, of fail to properly identify the audience and benefits (who is this for, what\u2019s in it for them?)<\/p>\n<p>Most&nbsp;<strong>novels<\/strong>&nbsp;we receive are lacking universal story structure, deep conflict and suspense, properly motivated and sympathetic characters, and believable dialogue. We can absolutely help point these issues out to you, but we can\u2019t fix or rewrite the entire book.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why we put together a course on writing that is more advanced than anything else on the Internet, yet simple enough for you to go through and quickly identify red flags and room for improvement.
