How to Link Your Short Stories of Memoirs into a Collection

 

Want to start, continue, or finish your linked short story collection?

Would you like to future-proof your stories so it's clear they were written by a human - by YOU?

Today, now that AI's like ChatGPT are writing stories, we writers are navigating a very different, complex world.

In this new world, stories that are AI-written will be devalued and others - those glorious stories that are the fruit of a human writer's lived or deeply-imagined experience - will become more valuable.

So how can we human writers stand out?

There are three simple steps to make sure your stories stand out.

Those three steps are also, happily, the very best, most effective three things you could possibly do for your writing.

And when you execute these three steps, your stories will form part of your very human, UNIQUE AUTHOR BRAND.

Readers will know your collection is not a compilation of fake AI-written stories but instead, the richly-imagined gems of your heart and soul.

To achieve this, to save months or even years of wasted time and pointless frustration, you need an experienced instructor.

Someone who knows how to build writers, someone who'll keep you motivated over the long haul.

In this year-long course, we'll do the following:

WE'LL STUDY CLASSIC AND BEST-SELLING AUTHORS TOGETHER

WE'LL WRITE TOGETHER

You'll get prompts to inspire you, that lead you to write pieces you would never have written otherwise.

WE'LL REVISE TOGETHER

WE'LL SUBMIT WORK FOR PUBLICATION TOGETHER
