The Book in a Month Club

Beginning May 20, 2013.
Finish your book by the end of spring and have it ready to send out to publishers this summer. Whether you are starting from scratch, or you need to revise your NaNoWriMo chaos, Candace Havens has you covered. Fast Draft is a process in which you'll finish your book in two weeks or less. Using psychological techniques, Candace will show you how to tap into the part of your brain that stimulates creativity so you can write, write, write! Following Fast Draft, Candace will teach Revision Hell. You will learn to take that jumbled first draft and make it shine. By the first day of summer, you'll be ready to submit your work to agents and editors. Gather your friends and join in for the fun. It's a two-hour daily commitment that will change the way you look at writing. Everything takes place online, so you'll be able to download your notes and work when it's most convenient for you. Celebrate summer with the gift of a finished novel and start on the road to publishing success.
Cost is $35.
