Novel Writing and Publishing Course

Just look at some of our successful Australian authors: Colleen McCullough, Bryce Courtenay, Matthew Reilly, Kathryn Fox, Stephen Reilly, Kate Grenville, Thomas Keneally, David Malouf, Clive James, Peter Carey, Judy Nunn, Simon Brown, Monica McInerney, Fiona McIntosh, and more ...

Many of them started out by undertaking a writing course. Why? To learn the fundamental skills of plot, dialogue, characterisation, flow, continuity, transition and how to lay out their novel and prepare it for publication.

Writing a novel—or writing many novels and becoming a successful author—really is achievable. Sure, you can struggle along without these skills but you may continue to struggle for your lifetime. Why do this when you can simply learn everything you need to in one comprehensive course.

The Novel Writing & Getting Published Course is designed to help you flesh out your idea and develop it into a book with a beginning, middle and end. You will learn to weave it into a gripping plot, complete with believable characters and credible dialogue.

For many people, writing a novel is the fulfillment of a lifelong ambition. For others it heralds the desire to become a career novelist and write for a living. It’s fun to write a novel but anyone who has started and stopped will tell you—it’s not easy to complete one without the proper instruction in novel writing skills. In this course your personal tutor provides you with step-by-step guidance—starting from the story idea right through to signing a book contract.

The best thing this course does for you, though, is to help you get your ideas out of your head and onto paper. Let's face it, many people come up with ideas but it is the actual writing of the novel that stops them from getting their book written and onto the shelves. That's where this course is invaluable. You are going to be guided and supported through the stages of starting, exploring and completing your book. Once this is done you will learn how to get it published and how to market it.

Earning royalties as a novel writer is a great way to turn your interest in writing into a lifetime income. To do this, though, you will need to learn how to write properly, with structure and flow. Your goal with this course is to write a novel and hold the published book in your hands.

You can write fiction for nearly any genre: family drama, comedy, thriller, romance, detective, western, intrigue, science fiction, historical saga, fantasy, adventure or crime. It can be literary or contemporary in style. It can have plots and sub-plots and as many chapters as you like.

This course can take you through the doorway that leads to your first published novel, your second, your third and so on. This is an amazing course so don't put your writing career on hold any longer. Even a little writing each week will help you to progress with your book. So get started now and start achieving your dreams!
