Want to Write Better and Sell More?
Are you happy with where your writing career is right now? The Advanced Fiction Writing E-zine was a free monthly e-zine for novelists who want to learn the secrets of developing their craft and marketing their fiction. I published this for nearly 17 years, and wrote the final issue in January of 2022. I will continue blogging at the Advanced Fiction Writing Blog.
Why do some writers get published and some don’t? When you sign up for my Advanced Fiction Writing Blog, I’ll send you a a FREE 5-day e-mail series, “How To Publish Your Novel.” Every day for the next 5 days, you’ll get an email with the next lesson. Find out the 3 things you MUST have to publish your novel — and how to get them. If you want to navigate the wild waters of traditional publishing, this series will give you a map. And if you want to know how indie-authoring differs from traditional publishing, the series will get into that also.
