Your step-by-step guide to becoming a writer

Would you like to get paid to WRITE? Do you want to change careers? Does the idea of crafting words, meeting people and seeing your words in print appeal to you?

If you've always wanted to get published and explore the world of writing ... you can! It's absolutely possible. And if you follow our Blueprint in a Box, you could be well on your way to a new career as a writer before you know it. It doesn't matter if you're in a completely unrelated job because you can learn the skills you need in order to succeed as a writer.

How do I know this?

Because I've done the same thing. My name is Valerie Khoo. I'm the Managing Director and Founder of the Sydney Writers' Centre. I used to be an accountant. At the time, I thought I'd better take a "safe" career option. But one day I realised I had to give in to my childhood dream of becoming a writer. I eventually decided I had to follow my passions, so I set myself a plan to transition careers - and I've never looked back.

Now, I'm a journalist, author and entrepreneur. I contribute regularly to The Sydney Morning Herald and write a regular column for the Enterprise section for smh.com.au, theage.com.au, brisbanetimes.com.au and watoday.com.au. I'm author of five books. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. I also write for a range of corporate and consumer publications. And I love it! Sometimes, I have to pinch myself that I'm being paid so well to do what I absolutely love.

I'm always thankful that I had the guts to Reinvent Myself. And you can too ...

Here's what you receive:

An audio program (2 CDs) that will lead you on your journey of reinvention
200+ page workbook and transcripts so you have my tips, advice and strategies at your fingertips
6 BONUS CDs featuring 8 best-selling authors that I've personally handpicked and interviewed. They'll share their secrets of success.

They include:

Tim Ferriss - Author of best-selling book The Four-
Hour Work Week on innovative ways to promote
your book.

Hannah Tinti - Author of The Good Thief, one of the
"Best Books of 2008", on researching, writing and the
art of simplification.

Pamela Freeman - Creative writing guru and author of
20 books, including: Blood Ties, Deep Water and Full
Circle.

Rachael Bermingham - Co-author of publishing

your writing process.

You can start NOW

Your Blueprint in a Box is your foundation for success. Years from now, you don't want to be saying to yourself: "I wish I had tried to be a writer ..." You can - and you can start that journey NOW with this step-by-step guide.

This Blueprint in a Box is like having me right by your side, showing you what to do every step of the way. If you did have face-to-face one-on-one mentoring with me, a mere 30 minutes would cost you more than the price of this product alone. And my schedule is very booked up.

It's like a one-on-one session with me

That's why I've created this Blueprint in a Box. It's everything you need to Reinvent Yourself. It's me talking directly to you on all the CDs. You can listen on your iPod, while you're commuting or while you're doing the gardening. Unlike a one-off mentoring session, you can "playback" my advice whenever you need some motivation and advice.

What do people say about working with me?

NICOLE FOSTER

"I just wanted to let you know that I bought your 'Reinvent Yourself' Audio Workshop and absolutely loved it."

NATALIE DEVLIN

"I completed the Writing for newspapers and magazines in January this year. Since then I have also purchased and currently using the Reinvent Yourself audio program. I'm just writing to let you know that these two courses have really helped me focus on my writing and encouraged me to write more frequently and with more focus and structure.

"With the help of both courses I have now made writing a part of my everyday life, rather than just a hobby that I do when I have time. I feel that my confidence is building and I'm moving forward with my passion. Thank you. I could not have made these simple changes without your guidance."
