The Fastest Way to Write Your Book

"The tips, tricks and techniques that professional writers use
to write, edit, publish and sell their books in days and weeks
... not months and years"

Few of us can afford to spend a whole year writing a book. And for most of us, that means not writing a book at all. Or putting it off until you're retired.

But if you're already retired then you'll know that doesn't work either - there still isn't enough time to write a book!

You can make the time of course, but that means making a few sacrifices. Cutting back on your social life. Neglecting your family and friends. Losing a bit of sleep. Slaving over a hot computer late into the night.

Coming to the party? No, I really must stay in and finish Chapter 7 ... No wonder they call it the loneliest profession.

Unfortunately once you've got the writing bug, you're stuck with it. Your time will never be your own again. Or maybe it will. Because there IS a solution to this age-old problem!

I had exactly the same problem myself. I was at work all day and running a growing website at night. And I had several books filling my head "bursting" to be written. Impossible, I thought. And I tried to forget about them. But of course I couldn't.

But while I was researching material for the website, I came across some interesting facts:

Ray Bradbury wrote "Fahrenheit 451" in 9 days
Stephen King wrote one of his "Richard Bachman" novels in 7 days
Georges Simenon wrote many of his "Maigret" novels in just 6 days each
Jack Kerouac wrote "The Subterraneans" in 3 days
Alexandre Dumas wrote one of his Boulevard Comedies in 3 days
(for a bet, which he won!)

Well, if they could do that - years before computers had been invented in some cases - what might be possible now? I made it my mission to discover their secrets and put them to the test.

And after extensive research, I found that YES! They really DO work!

But I went a step further than that. I also refined and improved them to suit the way we work today. So now they work even better. (By "better" I mean easier as well as faster.)

And then I added some ideas of my own that have never been seen before!

I've put the whole collection into a 240-page guidebook called The Fastest Way to Write Your Book. It costs the same as a regular paperback, and it covers the entire writing process.

Everything is explained in simple steps that anyone can do, even if you've never written anything before. And it works for both fiction and non-fiction.

You'll discover how well known authors wrote classic books in a matter of days - and exactly how you can do it too. Step-by-step, writing for just a few minutes at a time, you'll finish your book in under a month. It's easy, straightforward - and it really does work!

And the result? I guarantee your book will be so good that readers and publishers will happily believe that you'd spent a year or more writing it.

If you've heard stories of authors who've written hundreds of books, and you've thought to yourself, how is that even possible? Get The Fastest Way to Write Your Book today! You'll not only believe that it's possible, you'll believe that you can do it too!

"one of the best and easiest writing manuals there is"

Eileen Frost I found The Fastest Way to Write Your Book one of the best and easiest writing manuals there is. Finding ideas for your story, planning, researching, editing and selling - it's all there. Writers block? Read chapter 16. Can't find the time to write? See chapter 8. A great book and although I've read it from cover to cover, I still refer to it constantly.

"this is the book that's finally got me on my butt and actually writing"

Robin Gott Dear Dave,

I've read dozens of 'How to Write' books, but yours is the one that's finally got me on my butt and actually writing.

I've found that the working method suggested in your book fits in perfectly with my lifestyle. I've got a wife, two small kids and a full time job, so it's the only practical way I can get a script written.

"packed with useful advice ... write faster and more easily ... and with a better hope of success"

The Fastest Way to Write Your Book is packed with useful advice, and I didn't find anything with which I didn't agree (and that's very unusual as far as I'm concerned). This book will encourage wannabe writers to write a full-length novel [or non-fiction book], rather than sticking to short stories, and if they just try to put the precepts into practice they will write faster and more easily, and will approach the whole thing with a more professional attitude and with a better hope of success.

"allows the brain's creative processes to weave stories together like a tapestry"

Dear Dave,

I found your book really helpful. I found other 'How to Write' books a bit stultifying to be honest, but your book allows for the brain's creative processes to weave stories together like a tapestry - far more satisfying and interesting.
