Reverse Writing
The proven method to get from back cover to bestseller
Most people still think that writing a book means starting on page one and working their way through to the last chapter until it’s finished. However, far too many writers get stuck and fail to complete their book with this traditional approach.
‘Reverse Writing’ turns the entire process around, by starting with the last page of your book, the all-important back cover.
This step-by-step guide will completely refresh your writing experience and result in a successful book. There is also a workbook.

‘From idea to book’ workshop
Millions of people are playing with the idea of writing a book, or are already working on a manuscript. Are you one of the few who will actually finish and publish their book?

My ‘Reverse Writing method’ revolutionizes book writing by turning the entire process around. You start with the back cover of your book, then make a good outline and only then start writing. This prevents you from getting stuck or having to go back to restructure or rewrite entire chapters.
The bonus? You can start promoting your book before you even finish writing!
I will explain everything, answer your questions and help you on your way in this live online workshop and Q&A session.
