This exciting book opens with the author’s inspiration to all the budding authors. The main theme is to teach how to write a book and become an author quickly and easily. Jason walks the potential readers through the stages of creating a book – an overview, the process, the format. the value, and all the phases of successful completion.

In the introduction, he starts with the question ‘are you ready to become an author?’ followed by that, he used various personal experiences and professional stories on how he successfully became one bestselling author. According to Jason, the very foremost rule to writing a book is there are actually no rules. He also discusses the value of publishing own writing. The influence of family and friends, media, clients, and customers are also put forward through the books.

The book is written in 30 chapters. The language is very easy to understand and overall, the book is very engaging and interesting. It is easy to follow, and this guide is truly the best pick for all those who have the urge to write. Highly recommended.

Thorough and well-organized

The Author Institute Method: The Quick and Easy Way to Become an Author is a guide by Jason Schenker for anyone to successfully write and publish any genre. We all have stories to tell, but what makes an author? And what makes a selling author?
Schenker breaks down in a clear, followable manner the steps of how to decide on an idea for a book, what to be careful of while writing, and how to move forward post-publishing and in future writing. I liked that this book could be applicable to any writer, fiction or nonfiction, even if it's a book about The Future of Squirrels.
I also thought that while for anyone that’s actually going to sit down a write a book, much of this might have been obvious, but I found Schenker’s point about setting realistic goals insightful. It’s important to be able to define success before you chase it, and as Schenker discusses, success depends on what goals you set. Therefore, it is important to set realistic goals both while writing (the amount of time you’ll need) and after (how many copies you will sell, how much money you will make).

Readers are Leaders and Authors are Kingmakers—A great book

Jason Schenker is new to us when it comes to forecasting the financial market. In this book, The Author Institute Method: The Quick and Easy Way to Become an Author, Jason takes us down the path of storytelling—not just any story but how to tell your personal story in compelling ways. In short, Jason wants you to tell your story as a leader, with authority and experience. Jason is the founder of the Author’s Institute in 2020 where he hopes to help leaders share their compelling stories, build stronger personal brands and improve their content marketing. The Authors Institute method is Jason’s contribution to the course of creating great writers who can sell their Personal Brand through the pages of a well-written brand story. While there are many books out there, I recommend this book for very special reasons, which include the fact that the author himself is one great personality with a great back story. I will love to tell my story one day and do it compellingly and that is why I chose to learn from someone who has already done it before and it's Jason Schenker.

A friend of mine is a great fashion designer and she even has her own brand. I've always told her to keep a journal of her story so that one day she can tell all about her way back to the start. A few months ago, we started working on this project but felt stuck after a few weeks of brainstorming. A college of mine recommended me The Author Institute Method by Jason Schenker. This book is the piece I was missing for the writing of my friend's designer story. The author provides the perfect guidance to the fulfillment of the task. The encounter with the book leads me to learn about Jason as well. When I read about him, I understood the book much better. He is aware of what a business needs in order to succeed. In his amazing knowledge, he is able to transfer the most important points to take into consideration at the moment of building one's own story.
I found Schenker's work the most valuable tool to start the journey of writing self-storytelling narratives.

Jason Schenker is a leader among financial market forecasters and futurists in the world. Jason wrote a book called The Author Institute Method: The Quick and Easy Way to Become an Author. This text is meant to help people to have an organized system to write a book, publish it and be in the market. Leaders tell their stories, and as Schenker says, leaders share their experience with others so they can learn and improve their knowledge. Starting this book with “Why I wrote this book?” Jason Schenker got me hooked from the beginning. Explaining the experience he had after publishing gave me a brand-new idea I could do. Dividing his book into 5 different blocks, Jason is able to provide information and great tips to succeed in the industry. I personally agree with the fact that a book can be a great business card, so I am on my way to starting mine! Solid read.

So helpful!


“The quick and easy way to become an author” is an amazing guide that can help you achieve your goals in 30 days!! But only if you are motivated enough to do exactly as told in the book, because it still won’t write the pages for you ;)
Jason Schenker genuinely surprised me with his words. It’s such a detailed guide that there are literally no questions left to ask. Every single step is narrated so carefully that you have no excuse not to become an author. Furthermore, it’s very realistic and it’s not promising to make you a billionaire or famous. No, it’s very down to earth and is very honest about the odds. But you will become an author 99.9% if you do exactly as told in the book. And that’s the whole point of this book. So, what are you waiting for! Read it and start writing!!

This book educates those who want to write, it gives really helpful writing tips, what to write about and encourages you to keep on writing. It is easy to follow and to understand. It is very goal oriented  and it keeps the writer focused on the fun in writing. The chapters are perfectly arranged according to importance for me . I would recommend this to first time writers .

This book is very easy-to-read, informative, and entertaining in a way I didn't expect since when I chose it I assumed it would be full of theory. Nothing could be further from the truth, the writing prompts as well as the resources and personal experiences will entice people who would like to write to become a good author in the best possible way.
I was amazed at how Jason Schenker was able to take what could be a very dry topic and make it engaging. The perfectly chosen words used throughout the book had me chuckling and agreeing with many of his points. I think he did a great job of weaving in his own experiences as a writer into the book without becoming overbearing.
I'm glad to have added this to my collection!

The Author Institute Method is a book that really surprised me since it delves into the tips we can take in order to become book authors but not just with the intention of being recognized as such but from a leadership point of view. I found this really original, I have honestly never thought about it.
The main core of the book is the fact that leaders write books and actually that is one of the things that make them successful in what they do and Schenker has used his way with words to put it bluntly and simply for any type of reader to grasp his ideas. It is simple, straightforward and a great inspirational piece of literature.

The Author Institute Method is the perfect book for people looking to start writing! As an avid reader, even doing so in different languages, I find myself paralyzed when it comes to writing, thinking "this is way too hard".

Well, Jason Schenker gives that opportunity in this book. He writes for everyone but is especially dedicated to leaders, encouraging them to tell their stories. I find this guide very helpful to overcome those fears; it's an easy read that could help me start writing with a detailed step-by-step process Jason teaches in The Author Institute, funded in 2020 by himself.

Definitely recommended, it gave me many ideas and helped me start moving ahead.

Leaders and books.

This book made me think a lot. Although I don't totally agree with the idea that you need to write a book to be a successful leader, I think the author's words are true, books can be business cards for leaders.
In his book, The Author Institute Method: The Quick and Easy Way to Become an Author, Jason Schenker tells us how to communicate a message or an experience effectively.
It has some important tips and it is a good guide to start organizing the writing of a book. Nevertheless, there are some points that are almost impossible to fulfill because they take time and money. All in all, I think it is a good book to obtain a positive and encouraging vision.

"The Author Institute Method", written by Jason Schenker, is an essential reading if the reader wants to be a real writer. While this read has plenty of advice on learning how to write and becoming a bestseller, it's an honest reflection on how difficult it is to create anything worthwhile.

The author also tells readers about his creative process, how he wrote his books and, above all, spreads his love for writing.

I think it's a great book for all those who want to become a writer or who need good advice and guidance in their process. I certainly recommend this book which helps leaders write and publish complete books.

A perfect book for authors

“The Author Institute Method” gave me the right and concise steps to become an author. Jason Schenker is the author behind this reader. In around one hundred and fifty pages, the writer was able to guide me to the path that leads to success.

Sometimes writing is hard, there are many things to consider: choice of words, grammar, organization of the text, among other things.

I consider this book to be highly educational and also inspirational. It is not surprising that this reader was written by a best-selling author, because he clearly knows how to express his ideas in a clear and straightforward way. Five stars to this one!

Interesting and helpful
“The author Institute Method” is a compelling and interesting guide written by Jason Schenker. In this book, he shares ideas about writing as well as the importance of being a leader. He assures that becoming a leader goes hand in hand with becoming a writer.
There are lots of examples and experiences that the writer shares to help leaders in general. It´s a simple but complete reading. I found his train of thought easy to follow and I could understand his ideas. I dare say that I am not so good at writing, still, after reading it I asked myself: why not start writing what I like? I think that it´s a very helpful book, that´s why I recommend it.

I have always wanted to write a book but didn’t know where to start. Author Schenker gave me the tools and ideas I needed to give that first step. Although I believe what is presented in this book is not as simple as the author himself proposes, I think that if we want to publish our book, we can do it.
International best-selling author Jason Schenker knows what he is talking about and shares all his knowledge on this field. I liked the book and I believe it was a short read that fulfilled my expectations although while reading I had the feeling there was something missing for the actual common person who wants to write. I like it.

In "The Author Institute Method: The Quick and Easy Way to Become an Author", readers are going to find a very structured guide to follow to write a book. Although there are a few things that don't seem realistic to happen in a short period of time, I think this guide can be an introduction on "How to".

There are some good tips and steps to follow and, even if the readers don't work well with deadlines, it is a great way to get used to them.

Overall, I think this book can help those first authors to know how the process of writing a book is and what it takes to accomplish that.

I am looking forward to building my team and putting what I learned into practice. Thank you for such a wealth of information.
