"I've been trying to write this novel for six years and was ready to give up. This course helped me understand WHAT was clogging up my novel and how to easily fix my issues. Within two months of starting this course, I finished my first draft (and promptly burst into tears of happiness). I could have never done it without this course and Alessandra's guidance and support."
Course lessons are designed to help you through every step of your journey.
Finding Your Story
We’ll discuss different idea sources, and how to build an entire list of potential plots. I’ll teach you how to rank your ideas using my idea checklist and how to narrow it down to the one you will write.
Developing Your Idea
Having an idea is great, but what do you do next? There are several types of writers, and you need to figure out which type you are, because that will determine how you will proceed with your idea. I’ll teach you several different ways to outline your novel with methods that will appeal to various creative types. I’ll teach you the breakdown of a novel’s plot progression and what should be occurring at different moments in your novel.
How to Actually Write
Knowing your plot is a step closer to The End but how in the heck do you actually write a novel? This all breaks down to scenes. If you can write a scene well… then you just have to write one scene, then another scene, then another. This section of the course will give you a toolbox of talents that you can use to make your scenes come alive. We’ll discuss characters – their development, actions, personalities, and relationships. I’ll teach you about flashbacks, time breaks, foreshadowing, descriptions, dialogue and pacing.
Your First Chapter
Start off your story with a bang. Writing your first chapter is one of the most exciting parts of the process, and you’ll be itching to start after building your foundation. I’ll discuss four types of first chapters and common myths and facts. Then, I’ll send you off to write your first chapter!
Chapters 2 through 20
I’m not sure how many chapters you’ll have, but I’ll be cheering you on the entire way through your first draft. With check-in lessons at major milestones, I’ll chime in when you’re struggling through that torturous middle, and teach you how to build up your climax so it blows your reader away.
The End
Ha, you’re not done with me yet! Once you finish your novel, I’ll do a special dance (I wish I was kidding). Then, I’ll show you how to find an editor, the rewrite process, and help you understand the difference between self and traditional publishing so that you can make an educated decision.

"Over the years I've taken a lot of courses and read a lot of books on how to write novels. This was the first one that actually helped me to understand the process and complete a novel. The videos are great and provide a lot of insight into the process of writing, creating conflict and developing interesting characters. Alessandra also keeps in touch and is on hand if you need help. She is a great teacher and because she has been there, done that it and become a success you know her advice will work. And for me it has. I finished my first book thanks to her lessons. I wholeheartedly recommend her courses."
Give yourself the tools to succeed.
Have you always wanted to write a novel but don’t know where to start? Does the idea of writing a novel fill you with insecurities and confusion?
Most new writers don’t know what to focus on, or where to start. Most new authors are afraid they won’t finish, or that their novel won’t be good.
Fear is a completely natural reaction – writing a novel is a huge accomplishment! And the thought of it can be daunting. But I’ve got great news.
You can dissolve that fear. You can find your confidence. You can sit down and WRITE YOUR NOVEL. And you can do all of that by arming yourself with the tools you need.
If you want to be a doctor, you need to go to med school.
If you want to be an electrician, you need to attend trade school.
If you want to speak Spanish, you need lessons.
If you want to write a book, you need to learn how.
Trying to write a book without knowing HOW is like trying to build a house without a contractor’s license.
You won’t know where to start.
You won’t know what tools to use.
You won’t know how to build a great foundation.
Eight years ago, I made that mistake. I had no knowledge, no idea of where to begin, and I sat down and tried to write my first book.
It was one of the hardest experiences of my life.
Four or five times, I came close to giving up.
I made the process so much harder than it needed to be.
Now, eight years later, I’ve written twenty-five novels and hit the New York Times Bestseller list seven times. I’m published in over twenty-six countries, and attended a movie premiere of one of my books.
My life has changed in a hundred incredible ways, and it was all because I wrote a novel.
Now, I want to help you write yours.
