Why write non-fiction?
More than 75% of all books published are non-fiction. Publishers and readers are actively looking for new non-fiction titles, and they have a long shelf life, often selling well for decades. That means it's far easier to get non-fiction published, and to make money from it.
This workshop shows you how to select the right category and topic for your book, how to organize and write it, and how to get it published. Step by step instructions and clear explanations make it easy for you to get into print and start your career as a successful non-fiction author!

I love this course and how thorough it is. I am trying to write my first non fiction book and this course is immensely helpful.
It was uninteresting and hard to follow. I think it’s challenging to teach a class online. It may be beneficial for them to learn some skills for online teaching as far as keeping the students engaged and teaching in a way that’s easy to follow and fun.
Such a great course! I am learning so much. The teachers are very knowledgeable and so sweet. I also really like the format and appreciate getting their personal takes on many of the topics, as well as hearing about their experiences. So far, it has been very helpful in starting my book. I’m looking forward to the next half of the course.
Good so far.
The instructors looked boring and sounded boring, content delivery was awful making it difficult to engage in what they were trying to teach. I didn't learn anything.
Good content. Good instructors.
interesting from the start
Timely and topical, as I am embarking on my writing career; after a lifetime of experience in mainstream business.
Yes, I learned a lot! I'm feeling more confident that I can indeed create something useful and interesting. Thank you!

I got some excellent tips, ideas, and information from this course. The pace is slow at times. I skipped parts in some places. Overall, it's an informative and useful course.
