Want to write but don't know where to start? Overwhelmed?
Brought to you by an Amish memoir author, this 12-Minute Writing Guide teaches you three (3) easy steps that instantly cut through the overwhelm to let you write with confidence and calm. No more feeling hopeless or stuck!
This Guide is for you if
Want to write your memoir or use your personal story to grow your business
Know you have a story inside you but don't know how to write or how to start
Enjoy writing in private but got burned by red ink all over your essays in college or high school
If you want to know why the process works, buy this book and give it a try for 7 days. You might be surprised by your results.
Note from I created this 12-Minute process in order to write my memoir. The first draft of every chapter in Amish Girl in Manhattan was handwritten. After I started offering lessons to others who also struggled with writing, I realized that I had a gift for conveying the Show, don't Tell technique. It makes or breaks your stories. It can addict people to your voice, make you unforgettable, and help you rise above the noise on social media.
But first, before you're ready to master that aspect of the craft (which gives you a powerful competitive advantage), you have to master the habit of writing daily. That is the purpose of the 12-Minute Writing Guide .

Good tip
It is brief tip and to the point. No sure it should be called a book. It is kind of an article.
