Do you yearn to make your living from fiction? Do you struggle to finish your manuscript because of block, indecision, or lack of confidence in your story? Have you already published books and just aren’t getting the sales you want? The truth is, the thing that really makes a difference in book sales is not currently being taught in the fiction author space. And it comes from the story level, not the marketing level. Real talk: if you don’t get it right at the story level, no amount of awesome marketing is going to make your book a best seller. Hi, I’m Liesel. I have 20 books, 4 genres, the USA today best-seller accolade, and multiple award wins under my belt. So, obviously I’ve been around the block few times. I have a lot of readers that follow me from genre to genre even though conventional wisdom says that’s rare. Why? Because my readers know that I know how to tell a story that’s going to make them feel something. And if you can master that skill you can write anything you want for the rest of your life and KNOW that it will be well received by readers. Which means better reviews, more gushing, more mega fans, and best of all, more royalties for you. Grab your fuzzy slippers and your chocolate of choice. I’m going to teach you how to emotionally engineer your story into the hearts and minds of your readers on purpose. Let’s go!
