This holiday season, I’m offering 25% off every product I’ve ever created! This means that for a limited time (November 18th–December 2nd), you can grab every book, course, and tool I sell here on my site at this special holiday price. The discount has already been applied sitewide, so no need to worry about coupons.
The sale starts out with my writing books on plot, character, and story structure, including my brand new book Next Level Plot Structure. Then you can take it a step further with interactive workbooks (including the Outlining Your Novel Workbook software) that can turn your knowledge into practical skills. Dive deep into character development with the Creating Character Arcs Course and this year’s brand new eight-week email course Shadow Archetypes: Writing Complex Fictional Characters. And don’t miss the Archetypal Character Guided Meditations for delving into your characters’ minds and dreaming up new story ideas.
Plus, you can grab all my novels and even the full-cast audio dramatization of my gaslamp fantasy Wayfarer (which is not available on my site but via the producer here and requires the code BLACKFRIDAY2024).
Please note that I only sell digital products (e-books, etc.) on my site. However, if you’re interested in paperback versions of my books, those are available on Amazon. Audio versions of many of the books can also be found on Amazon and Audible.
Whether you’re a budding writer or a seasoned wordsmith or just in search of a good read, it is my hope and intention that these tools will enhance your storytelling prowess. Or maybe they’ll just help you figure out what to get your writing buddies for Christmas.
You can find more details about the products below, and if you’re still not finding what you’re needing right now in your writing journey, keep scrolling for seasonal offerings from other writing brands.
