Hey writer, do you like to make money?

If you do, I’m teaching a class about creativity and income.

As a storyteller, you’ve got more opportunities today to create income from your work than you may realize and I’m excited to share some of these ideas with you.

From book sales, affiliate income, Patreon supporters and sharing your knowledge with others, you probably have more chances to make money from your learned skills as a writer than you realize. In this class, we’ll talk about those opportunities, where they are now, and what may be appearing in the near future so you’re ready to pivot with change.

What I do

For the last three years, I’ve been working with one of the best-selling science fiction series on Amazon, and I’ve learned what it takes to build a loyal audience who love and support your work.  I’m the author of nine novels and a member of the Science Fiction Writers of America.

The Class

I’ll share how to build a flagship series with multiple entry points for readers, how to build an email list so you talk directly to your readers, as well as engagement in Facebook groups, how to identify who is not your audience, and to build relationships with readers who are your audience.

We’ll talk about affiliate income from your newsletters, how to build a successful Patreon presence that serves your readers, and even why and how you might run a crowd-funded Kickstarter campaign.

That’s just the foundation. Once you have your series, there are many ways to generate income off your creativity, from audio, merchandising, affiliate income, events and experiences.

Multiple Income Mindset

You also may be looking at your writing career as an either/or situation: You can only be a full-time author, or a full-time employee.

For me, thinking about multiple income streams from my work and in my life helps me feel more confident about my financial and personal decisions.

Take-Aways

This class will give you actionable steps to assess your writing from a financial perspective, build an audience of readers who want to buy your work, and then options on authentic merchandise and experiences to build their loyalty to you and your work.

I don’t teach often (I’m busy writing) so I look forward to seeing you!
