You have decided that this is the year you will publish your book. But... You have so many questions and you are intimidated by all you do not know about the process.

Fear not!

In this video course, I walk you step by step through the entire process I have used over and over. The same process that I teach to my WILDFIRE Mastermind clients. In the videos, I share how to do things and then I show you how to do them when I share my screen with you. It is like I am sitting at your computer with you and we are walking though the process together.

The videos and modules are delivered to you in small, digestible chunks so that you can learn, then go and apply it to your own work.

The goal of this course is to show you the ropes, discuss my mistakes (so you do not have to make them), and get you well on your way to publishing your first book on your timeline.

Once you have moved through this process once, you will become addicted to writing and publishing your work. I promise!
