Parnell presents: "The Easy Way to Write
Non-Fiction for Publication & Profit!"
Remember
that I've always said the chances of getting non-fiction
published over fiction was a full 1000%?
And that's with a traditional publisher! Like Random
House, Penguin or Allen and Unwin!
That's
a fabulous 1 in 5 chance of having YOUR BOOK in a high
street book store, rather than 1 in 50 to 100
chance for fiction.
Well it’s STILL true - even TODAY - you are 10
to 15 TIMES more likely to get a non-fiction
book published than a novel. It’s a fact.
Plus, on average, a non-fiction book will take a writer
just a quarter or even a fifth of the time you’d
spend on a fiction manuscript.
And you know what that means?
By 3 to 6 months time you could see results. Yep,
that quickly!
Publication, advances, respect. A career in writing
begun.
But you need to get it right, don’t you - first time
out?
Which is why I developed this new course of lessons on Writing
Non-Fiction That Sells - and re-issued it TODAY
as one easy download.
It comes from yours truly and a mega talented non-fiction
author by the name of Mary Lombardo (you‘ve probably
seen her name in bookstores and on Amazon). She’s
got a publishing list as long as your arm.
We’ve made sure that everything we’re going to
teach you is up to the minute, factual and more than
do-able. Just follow the dots and bam, you’ll have a
non-fiction book out there - or just a proposal if you
don't want to write it first! - with a serious chance of
publication - within just a few weeks. Guaranteed.
