About me

This isn’t about me. This is about you. That book you’ve always wanted to write, that great story you have to tell. How do you start? More importantly, how do you finish? What does it take to be able to type those two magical last words: “The End”? Because that’s only the beginning. Now you want to get published. You’ve got to edit, tighten, sharpen your voice. Then, how do you find an agent, how do you get discovered? And when you do, what do you need to know about contracts, advances, and royalties? And don’t forget marketing and promotion. Why do some books succeed while most don’t? What does it take to connect with an audience? This is your time. Spend it wisely. I’ll make sure you will. I’m someone who’s already done everything you’ll need to do to become a successful, bestselling author. Fiction or non-fiction, any genre—the fundamentals remain the same. All it takes to hone your talent is a little guidance and a lot of passion. So let’s do this. Together. Discover why my collaborations with James Patterson (the Honeymoon books, Don’t Blink, Truth or Die, Sail, and the Instinct series) have been read by millions and millions of people worldwide. It’s not easy, but it’s also not as hard as you might think. So bring your questions, fire away. Because this isn’t about me. This is about you.
