What you'll cover
Let's look at the reasons why most writers fail, so that we can learn from their mistakes. Why? Because most writers fail on the easy stuff - and your voice is far too precious to squander.
From structure to schedules, agents to arcs, outlines to outreach, repetition to repetition, most writers struggle to navigate the complex world of text. They splurge out a chunk of their heart, without any form or function, then wonder why it, slowly, sadly, fades. So, let's not do that. Let's write right.
Before you set out on the writing journey, Rob will give you a road map. Then you will learn how to ride the bike, before you start to pedal.
