-- Interview by Nicole Pyles

WOW: Congratulations on the launch of your Sit & Write: Begin course. Tell me about the instructors! Share more about your and Kate's background.

Claudine: I am an author, book marketer, podcaster, and essayist who loves to share book marketing and publishing strategy with authors. My philosophy is to make book promotion as simple to understand as possible so that authors are actually excited to do it and make it work for them to sell their books.  Find me at ClaudineWolk.com.

Kate is an author, teacher and speaker who empowers others to bring their brilliance into the world and onto the page. She believes in the transformative alchemy of writing and helps others see the value (and narrative arc) of their stories. Find Kate at KateBrenton.com.

WOW: You both have such a unique background that you bring to your students. What led you to create this class?

Claudine: Thanks so much.  Kate and I were invited to bring our approach to local & live presentations, which we called “Writers Helping Writers.”  The responses were immediate. The information was so helpful and motivational to our attendees that we were compelled to reach as many authors as we possibly could to share the secrets we had learned. We took our longer, three month deep-dive course (Sit & Write) and pulled out the top level, get-you-going gems to make a video, mini-cohort that participants could take and digest in their own time and at their own pace. Viola, Sit & Write: Begin! 

WOW: How awesome! I love how it evolved. What can people expect from taking this class?

Claudine: The class combines writing and book marketing instruction so that every author will come away with a clear vision for their book, combined with crucial, fundamental knowledge of book marketing. This is the game-changer for when authors are ready to write and publish their book. After taking the course, writers are excellently positioned to complete, publish and sell their books.  We take the “scary” out of writing and book marketing. 

WOW: I'm so glad you do that. There's so much to learn about the book writing and publishing process. Who is this class right for?

Claudine: Anyone who is ready to embark on the journey of writing a book and becoming a published author. 

WOW: Sounds like our readers! What will people leave with after taking this course?

Claudine: A clear vision and plan for their book and the breath of what is possible to market and sell it.  

WOW: I love that. At what stage in someone's writing life (or career, if you will) should they be to take this course?

Claudine: This course is designed for the aspiring, beginner author; however; it is also valuable for authors who would like to come at the experience of writing a book from a refreshingly new perspective.  Established authors who desire to embrace a new book marketing strategy to sell their books will profit enormously from this course.

WOW: I love what you have given back to the writing world. 

Readers, make sure you check out the Sit & Write: Begin course, which will cost you only $97. A must-have as part of your writing journey.
