The 36 Tips For Better Prose 
(or, how you can write like a professional author)

Dear Fellow Writer,

This is the writing guide I wish I had starting out. It’s yours for FREE. I’ll explain why it’s free. Then I’ll show you how to use it.

The PDF is called the 36 Tips For Better Prose. Click the button if you just want to cut to the chase. Keep reading if you’re curious.

Writing is really hard.

Neil Gaiman, author of Coraline, said: “Assume that you have a million words inside you that are absolute rubbish and you need to get them out before you get to the good ones.”

If you wrote 500 words a day, every day, it will take you five YEARS to write a million words. According to Gaiman, you won’t be a good writer until 2029!

Is it time to give up?

No! Don’t give up on your dreams! 

What if I told you — and very few writers know this — there are actual fiction writing techniques you can learn to speed up your progress? Professional authors use these techniques every day. You’ve never heard of them because nobody talks about them.

When I started writing full time, I stumbled around like a headless chicken, writing story after story of pure rubbish. Nobody taught me how to write. I thought if I just kept writing, I’ll eventually become good.

With every bad novel, I discovered more about the craft of writing. I kept a detailed notebook of my discoveries. When I later went through the notebook, I found eighty something writing techniques sandwiched between pages of unintelligible story notes. These are techniques I learned the hard way. These are techniques I figured out by banging my head on my desk at 3 A.M. on a Monday night.

Now I’ve condensed these techniques into a 20-page PDF.

These writing tips are absolute gold. They’re so actionable even a beginner can apply them right away.

If you can apply even one tip to your writing, today, you’ll notice a difference.

This is literally the PDF I wish I had starting out. It would’ve saved me years of bad writing and hundreds of rejection letters.

Okay, enough talk. Enjoy the 36 Tips For Better Prose.
