FAQs
Will these courses work if I’m a complete beginner?
Yes! Remember that your subconscious mind has been recording stories since before you were small. These courses will teach you how to create endless story ideas, what makes a short story and how to write one, and how to make your character unforgettable.
You have a lot of stories inside you, even if you’ve never written one before.
Will these courses work if I’ve already finished, or even published, some stories?
Yes. They will make your next stories simpler, more powerful. They'll transform your characters into unforgettable, 3-dimensional people who leap off the page. And you'll have the confidence of knowing you'll never run out of ideas.
Does knowing the simple formula for writing a short story mean you’ll write the same short story repeatedly? Will it inhibit your originality?
No. It’s a broad formula -- a skeleton -- that provides structure without limiting your imagination in any way.
Will knowing this material magically turn you into Anne Tyler or Neil Gaiman overnight?
No. But then, you wouldn’t want that. The only artist you want to be is YOU.
There’s only one of you in the world, with your unique sensibilities and skills, and that’s the writer -- the artist -- that you can become.
Will these courses work for people who struggle with perfectionism?
Yes! They are the antidote to perfectionism. They'll make it easy - simply follow the fun prompts - to gather your ideas, write your stories, and create as many unforgettable characters as you want.
Will these courses work for non-techie people?
Yes. Just watch (or listen to) the videos, and download any PDFs that accompany each video. That’s it!
