About us

We’re a team of authors and editors who spent over decades in writer’s circles, critique groups, and author communities. We've seen writers struggle with the same challenges over and over again.

Challenges that make them think they’ll never finish their books. Challenges that drove some of those writers to give up—and that almost made us give up on our dreams too.

So, we decided to do something about it because no one should have to give up on their dreams. 

We pooled the knowledge we gained over decades of writing, publishing, and editing to create streamlined, action-based workbooks based on the same systems we used to write and publish over 50 novels.

Your dream deserves more than a pile of disconnected lore and scattered notes.

The only difference between authors who publish and those who never finish is structure.

Without structure, you’re left with piles of sticky notes, misplaced Word Docs and scattered index cards.

We give you the proven frameworks used by over 15K writers for worldbuilding, characters, plot, and more.

FAQ

Can't I get all this info for free online?

Maybe, but it'll take you a long time and a lot of sifting through bad advice.

The internet is a wonderful resource and a cesspit full of crap.

You could spend years trying all the contradictory writing advice on the internet to find the gold that actually makes your story better.

Or you could start writing today with the benefit of our 25 years of writing, editing, and publishing 50+ books. We spent decades reading every writing book, blog post, and article we could find. These workbooks combine all that research and practice.

How are you different from other writing guides?

We don't believe in telling you WHAT to do. We believe in showing you EXACTLY HOW to create the story of your dreams.

Instead of lengthy explanations about what you should be doing, we get straight to the point with brief, actionable chapters. Then, we dive into HOW to create worlds, characters, and plots.

Unlike books you might find on Amazon, our worksheets are available as printables and as templates in your favorite writing program so you can organize your thoughts RIGHT AWAY without having to type out questions from a book or turn abstract lessons into useful worksheets.

Does using a system or structure lead to formulaic books?

Story is structure. The difference between a pile of sticky notes or the scenes in your head is not the words themselves. It's the structure that ties them altogether.

Plot structures, character arcs, and worldbuilding systems have existed for ages because they work. If you break down your favorite stories, whether in books or movies, you'll find that most of them follow a very similar structure. They might even have the same types of characters.

You might not always be consciously aware of the structure of a book, show, or movie while you're enjoying it, but you sure as hell notice when the structure goes wrong (hello, Game of Thrones season 8).

But prompts, worksheets, and structure go a bit further than just providing the skeleton for your story.

Your first, second, third ideas are always going to be the things you've seen before, the culture you're most familiar with, the stories you've read and watched. That's just how the human brain works – what you are exposed to the most often is what you think of first (it makes sense from a survival perspective!).

Prompts and structures get you to dig deeper into your existing ideasto find new approaches, new aspects, and new ways of creating so your ideas become stronger and more original than they would be otherwise.

That’s why studies show thatlimitations lead to MORE creative and original ideas than the freedom to do anything at all.
