How to Outline (Like An Author)

Save the Cat. Romancing the Beat. Plotting. Pantsing.

You know the formulas, the blueprints, the beat sheets.

Now, learn how to build your own outline — one that actually sells books.

Don't just write a book... Sell it.

Outlining isn't about just writing, it's about selling that book. Whether we like it or not, readers expect certain things in the books they read.

Learn what those things are, and how to get them right, before you start writing.

One course. Unlimited books.

Bold words, I know. But I believe it's true.

I've studied (and practiced) just about every outlining methodology under the sun — I've made my own, trashed my own, tweaked, altered, and practiced some more.

Everything I've learned about outlining is here. No fluff, no BS. Just hard-earned lessons about outlining novels for speed, efficiency, and — of course — ensuring readers love them.

This is the ultimate course on outlining fiction, designed to take the mystery out of the writing process and turn your ideas into a well-structured, compelling story.

Guaranteed.

If you don't write better AND faster after working through this course, I'll give you your money back.
