Book in a Bag

After years of trial and error and tweaking, market research, and a successful Kickstarter campaign, my novel- and memoir-writing technique is finally available to the public. Woot! Meet the Book in a Bag.

In honor of its release, I've dropped the price of my online plotting class from $49 to $4.

Make this the year you write that book!

BOOK IN A BAG

All good stories—fiction and nonfiction—are about the transformation of a character facing their greatest fear. The Book in a Bag method uses this fact to break complex writing into a simple, scene-based approach. It takes all the stress out of organizing your ideas, leaving you free to enjoy the exhilaration of crafting compelling short stories, novellas, novels, and memoirs. This method is suitable for all levels of writers at all stages of the drafting process.

KIT INCLUDES:

-Easy-to-follow instructions
-Plotting cards bound by removable clasp
-Notebook and colored pencils
-A lucky marble
