Overview

Congrats! You’ve reached the point where you have work (output!!) to release into the literary world. Honestly, I salute you! You’ve taken the blank page—filled it with characters and motivations and plot twists (and turns!), and that well-earned climax—you’ve taken that idea…and you’ve made it REAL. There was nothing; now, there’s something.

Next Step: “Put your work…and yourself…out there in the world.”
