And today we announce our first public foray into making something useful for writers that are not a part of our secret society … err, not-secret society. To repeat that, we are no longer secret. Ix nay on the secret part of the society thing.

Our greatest unofficial threat is an enigma known as The Illiterati who want you to spend all your time on facebook and youtube.

What people are saying about this mini course
“I thoroughly enjoyed it. I’m always flitting between the excitement of having an idea and debilitating self-doubt, and so it was an encouraging read, with great tangible tips, and really good exercises”
- Danny F.“It’s long enough to touch me, yet short enough to not feel dull or unnecessarily stretched. [Exercises are] usually a thing I hate about “guides” or “how to”-books but yours address life (as a writer) itself, rather than telling me what I should write”
- Hans“The life of writing is more complicated than you might expect. This course helps you navigate the quagmire.”
- Michelle N.“Writing can be difficult. And for those just starting out, or even those who’ve been at it a while, chasing the dream — the passion of writing — can be maddening. This guide sets out to pull together some of the best advice you could receive in order to stay sane through the process. The guide is not only a fun read, one that might help pick you up on your worst days as a writer, but it also grounds itself in reality with exercises aimed at tapping into that zen space a writer must have to remain on top of their craft. If you’re looking for a guide you could use as a daily writing devotional, an occasional fast pick-me-up, or an entertaining book on the minutiae of the writing mind, this is an excellent place to start.”
- Austin G.
