Writing a book is hard. And writing a book that readers love is even harder!
Have you ever finished writing a book and had that nagging feeling that something was missing? Or maybe you’ve just started a new writing project, only to find your enthusiasm fizzling out mid-way through? Or you’ve made it to the end of your latest manuscript, only to discover there was a much better way of writing it? Perhaps your current method of plotting isn't generating the kind of creativity you want, or the stories readers crave?
There is a simple solution to these problems and more: use an outline!
Specifically, the outline designed by mega-selling Relay Publishing. For over six years Relay has used this system to create page-turning romance books that readers can’t get enough of! They sell a book every thirty-eight seconds, and every one of their best-selling titles uses this exact outline template.
This comprehensive five-stage outline process delivers a step-by-step method to make your characters and story STRONGER!
The outlining method taught in this course is more than just the basic skeleton of a book. This is a complete system that will not only provide a strong foundation for your writing, but push you to find your best story—completely unique to you and your characters.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
How to use the tropes readers love without being formulaic and slipping into cliché
How to develop rich characters with goals, motivations, values and conflict baked in before any plot is laid down
How asking carefully crafted questions will bring out the best in your characters and story
How a simple game can give you all the scenes your book needs
How to create a plot that grows organically from the unique characters you have set up and the choices they make
The 18 beats your story must have to keep the reader turning the pages
How to turn those beats into fully-fledged scenes you’ll love to write
No second guessing, no endless drafts or rewrites, no writer’s block — this outlining system will free your mind to focus on what you do best: writing great romance stories.
NOTE: In the final stage of this course, your outline will be reviewed by a professional editor for feedback. This is included in the cost of the course.
