A widely-published author shares the knowledge and tools you need to become a
successful author.
The 12-Hour Author lifts the veil and invites the reader in on the secrets of successful writers, both from the angle of how to write well, but also-and almost uniquely among books on the subject--the practical elements of how to work as a writer.
