Discover the surefire secrets to publishing success ... "Become A Published Novelist This Year ... You Can Do It - Once You Have The Proven Secrets  of The Novel Writing Made Easy System"    From the oceanside home of Andrea Rains Waggener,Novelist  Dear Fellow Writer: You know what it's like ... staring at a blank screen ... completely at a loss of how to get started ... the weight of the 360 pages almost unbearable because you haven't written a single word yet ... all your doubts gathering around like a swarm of merciless critics. At first glance, writing a novel can seem like a monumental, nearly impossible task.  It's tempting to throw up your hands and walk away. But the itch just won't let you do that, will it? No matter how many times you walk down the aisles at the bookstore, green with envy at the sight of all those books with other people's names on the covers, and tell yourself that you'll never be one of those names ... you still can't let go of the idea of writing a novel, can you? Because you know that's who you are inside ... a writer. You know that's what you want for your life ... to be a published novelist. And you know that if others have it, then you can do it.  In fact, you've read more novels than you can count on both hands that you could have written better, haven't you? Do you subscribe to a writer's magazine?  More than one writer's magazine? Do you have a collection of writing books on your shelves?  Are they gathering dust because they never put together the pieces of the puzzle for you?  Maybe one book would focus on structuring your novel, while another would focus on developing your characters, and another would focus on the setting and backstory.... All the little pieces, but never the big picture. I know.  Because I've been where you are.  My bookshelves are crammed with books on writing, and I've read them all in search of what really works.  I've taken a dozen writing courses.  I've written a handful of novels that never sold, and I've collected enough rejections slips to paper all four walls in my office.  I've done it all in my journey to become a published author. And you know what? I did it the hard way.  But you don't have to. There's an easier way. "Novel writing isn't quite as easy as painting by numbers, but Andrea has come as close as you can possibly get to making it that simple.  She has created a novel writing system that leads you step-by-step from initial idea through writing a manuscript draft, rewriting it and preparing the query and synopsis you need to submit it.  Andrea's book teaches you the essential elements of plot, character, setting, and pacing, and she teaches you how to develop all of these elements in a way that makes putting your novel together as much of a breeze as writing a novel can be.  "As the author of 37 books, including 33 novels, I can tell you that the most important part of writing a novel is knowing your characters well and setting up your story in a way that keeps the reader intrigued the whole way through.  Andrea's system helps you to do this.  I wish I'd had this system back when I first started writing.  Even after 37 years of writing and doing quite a lot of teaching--I still learned some new tricks when I read her system.”  Margaret (Meg) Chittenden Best-selling author of 37 books www.megchittenden.com Ever Become So Frustrated That You Wanted To Give Up Your Dream of Being A Writer?

Sound impossible? Sound like fiction? Well, it's not. Just imagine being so eager to work on your novel that you look for every opportunity to sit down at your computer and pound on the keys.  Imagine having such a clear vision of exactly what you're going to write that your fingers can hardly keep up with the words tumbling out of your head.  Imagine being so jazzed you don't want to stop, - not for dinner, not for a bathroom break ... not for anything. That's what it's like when you write the easy way. But don't stop there. See yourself receiving that first acceptance letter in the mail.  They want your book.  You're going to be a published author.  Your book is going to be carried in bookstores all across the country.  Then imagine it happens again with your second book.  And your third.  And your name is showing up on bookcovers everywhere. Still don't stop there. Imagine how you'll feel the first time you open a letter and discover an advance check inside.  How fast is your heart going to be racing?  How many seconds will pass before you call your spouse or your best friend with the fantastic news?
