Our plan is to help 200 people become wealthy authors in the early part of 2010 and so with that in mind – numbers on the launch are extremely limited.

We’ve also got our faculty and friends to provide exclusive launch bonuses making the gift pool for this launch really special and valuable to authors at all stages on their writing and publishing journey.
