"Become A Published Novelist This Year ... You Can Do It - Once You Have The Proven Secrets of Novel Writing Made Easy!"

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.

Margaret (Meg) Chittenden
Best-selling author of 37 books

"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.”

Ever Become So Frustrated That You Wanted To Give Up Your Dream of Being A Writer?

Are you close to giving up now?

What if I told you I could make it easy for you to write your novel and write it so well you'll be able to beat the tough odds in the publishing world?

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?

Can't you just smell the ink on the check? Can't you just feel the pride that will surge through you when you take the check up to the teller in the bank for deposit and he sees that it's from a publishing house? How thrilling is it going to be to tell him about your soon to be published novel?

David B. Silva
The Successful Writer

"It doesn't matter if you've never started a novel before. It doesn't matter if you've never finished a novel before. In fact, it doesn't even matter if you've completed a novel before. Andrea has developed a novel writing system that takes you step-by-step through the entire process in such a manner that not only is writing going to be fun for you again, but the end result is going to impress editors and publishers. You can't do better than that.

"This is the best, most comprehensive and motivating novel writing system I've ever come across. Anyone who has a desire to be a fiction writer will do well to start with Novel Writing Made Easy. I only wish I had started out in my own writing career with the solid foundation that this course provides."

Now, I realize there's no shortage of novel writing books out there. Some promise you can write a book in 7 days, or 14, or 30.

The truth is ... if you have a life (and most of us do), it's going to take you longer than 30 days to write your novel. But it doesn't have to take much longer.

In fact, I've planned, written, and polished a 500-page novel in 60 days using the Novel Writing Made Easy System.

Sixty days isn't bad, is it? Two months from now, if you're holding a finished manuscript in your hands ... you know what it'll feel like? You'll be walking on air.

I know. I've done it. And you can do it, too.

If you really want to be a writer, if you're serious about getting published, the Novel Writing Made Easy System has everything you need.

We've reached a moment here, before I tell you about everything you'll find in the Novel Writing Made Easy System, where I need to tell you a little about myself. If you don't know anything about me, then you don't know if you can trust that I know what I'm talking about. So, here it goes...

I am the author of three published books:

Alternate Beauty (Bantam 2005)
Healthy, Wealthy, & Wise-Fifty-Two Life-Changing Lessons for the Twenty-First Century (Hazelden 2005)
Dog Parenting - How To Have An Outrageously Happy And Well-Adjusted Canine (Adams Media Corp., 2006)

As a result of my writing success, I've been a guest on numerous radio shows. I've also appread on Fox News Network's Fox & Friends and the Pacific Northwest TV shows, Northwest Afternoon and Being In Seattle. In addition, my books have received coverage in newspapers such as the The Seattle Post-Intelligencer and in national magazines such as Fitness and Shape.

Not only am I a successful author, I'm also a teacher. Before I became a writer, I was an attorney, and I taught legal writing at the Univeristy of Puget Sound Law School. My teaching was done primarily one-on-one. I provided my students with lessons on structure and grammar, and then I worked with them privately, providing them with gentle but honest feedback to help them improve. I've also taught writing workshops and online writing courses.

Sandra Shih, Writer
New York, New York

“I have wanted to write my novel for the past several years, but could never get myself past the first chapter despite numerous false starts and enrollment in a locally popular writing workshop. Ande’s correspondence course opened my eyes to what it really takes to write a novel, by providing a structured planning process that has helped me flush out much more clearly what it is that I want to write about, and the best way to go about telling my story. Until taking Ande’s writing course, I had never been able to collect my thoughts or organize them in a particularly cohesive manner. Her assigned tasks have helped me build a solid foundation for writing my novel, by pushing me to think through the overall geometry of my novel very carefully so that everything fits together in the end - compelling storyline, interesting characters, and underlying message.

As a talented and published author herself, Ande not only provides invaluable practical advice on how to tell an interesting story that will keep your readers entranced, but she also teaches how to put together a novel that will actually get published. I would highly recommend Ande’s e-books on novel writing to any aspiring writers who are looking for a practical yet highly motivating novel writing system that you can follow at your own writing pace.

When You Purchase
My Novel Writing Made Easy System,
I'm Throwing In The How To Become
A Writer Extraordinaire System

I was selling the How To Become a Writer Extraordinaire System for $67. But I’ve become fed up with the high costs of information products on the internet, AND I understand what it’s like to be a struggling writer. So I cut the price of that system to $27. Now, I'm going even further. That system will coast you $0 when your purchase the Novel Writing Made Easy System. That's zero dollars.

I followed the advice of experience internet businesspeople when I set the prices for my systems, and I have no doubt that my knowledge is worth the prices I set. Even so ...

Higher prices put these products out of the reach of a lot of people, and I HATE that. So, I've decided to include the whole How To Become A Writer Extraordinaire System (including ALL The bonuses I have listed on the How To Become A Writer Extraordinaire website) FREE when you purchase the Novel Writing Made Easy System. You're going to get TWO Complete writing systems for the price of one.

"I have played around with other forms of novel writing courses that were ok, I suppose, but I never really got much out of them. They were good programs, particularly the novel writer's workshop from Writer's Digest Magazine. But until I purchased your Novel Writing Made Easy System, I was never really enthused with the possibility of actually writing a novel. After completing the first few chapters and producing a bevy of ideas with the "what if" and "Why" questions, I started to become really psyched.

"So when I got the chance to purchase your How To Become a Writer Extraordinaire System, I put the Novel aside temporarily. I now am journaling and doing at least one 15 minute timed writing and have garnered even more good ideas as a result. In a couple of weeks I will complete the Writer Extraordinaire System and will turn my full attention to the novel writing course once again. I am very happy to have stumbled onto Ande Waggener's writing courses."
