You've got a message - a story to share that the world needs to hear. But how do you take that idea all the way from Introduction to Conclusion? How do you fill 50,000 (or more!) words with that idea? Too many authors start strong but run out of steam because they haven't made a plan. Too many authors have a vision for the end result but don't know how to make it a reality. We'll help you map your book from start to finish. Book mapping is at the heart of everything we do. As long-time publishing professionals who have worked on hundreds of books, we know that the best books start with a solid plan. By creating a visual map of your book's content, you'll always know what to write next and feel confident that you're on the right track. Is it right for you?This course is best for those who aspire to publish a commercially successful book, and are open to feedback and willing to adjust their vision in order to achieve that dream! We see everyday what works and what doesn't - so we'll be honest if your idea isn't commercially viable. You'll get the most out of this course if you come in with an open mind.

Plan Your Book So You Never Get Stuck

Course syllabus

On Tuesdays, we'll teach you that week's lessons and split into breakout groups so everyone has time to share ideas and ask questions specific to their genre.

Tuesday Teachings

We realize that not everyone can make it live to the teachings on Tuesdays, so you can catch up on the replays and come Thursday evenings to workshop your ideas, get feedback, and hang out with your new writer friends!

Thursday Workshops

Course schedule

Thought leaders and experts who know that writing a book is the next step to their big breakout.

Aspiring memoirists who want to learn from commercially successful memoirs how to tell a winning story.

Historians, academics, and experts who want to write the next Seabiscuit or The Boys in the Boat.

Who this course is for

What you’ll get out of this course

Every book starts with knowing who you're writing for and what you're writing. Your book is no exception! Plus, we'll help you choose great models to learn from.

Define your audience and pick a genre

Nailing down your big idea is one of the hardest parts of writing a book! We'll spend lots of time helping you refine your idea into an argument worth writing and defending.

Get personalized feedback on your big idea

Every book is about transformation - and it's essential to have clarity about where your reader is starting and where they're going before you begin writing.

Create a transformative journey for your reader

For every nonfiction genre, we'll give you tools and templates to find a structure that works!

Learn how to structure your book from start to finish

Every chapter should have a rhythm and accomplish a little transformation of its own. We'll help you build a sequence of chapters that lead to your book's ultimate transformation.
