⭐Use Your Creative Superpowers to Teach and Inspire Teens Around the World!⭐

    Wouldn’t it be amazing for your child to have a global impact now? If your child has written or is even thinking about writing a book that will teach, entertain, or inspire others,  this class will give them the tools to write, publish, and sell their book on Amazon easily. This how-to class designed for 9 to 12-year-old students combines the popular Finish F.A.S.T. Book Writing Camp and the How to Publish a Book on Amazon Easily classes into a flexible schedule class. During the 6-week course, learners will be taken through the Finish F.A.S.T. Book Writing Method and a demonstration of the publishing of their manuscript on Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) and paperback formats via video recordings. 

By the end of the course, learners will be ready to upload their manuscript and book cover and then sell the book on Amazon. Remember neither the book content nor cover needs to be complete to take this class. The only prerequisite is basic computer skills.

Learning Goals

Learners will establish writing goals, create an ideal writing environment, learn to move past writer’s block, and start their first draft of a book.
Learners will be ready to upload their manuscript and book cover and then sell the book on Amazon.
