What you will learn

You will learn how to write a book in just 30 days from a best-selling author.

You will learn my best techniques for coming up with good book ideas that can be completed in as quick as 30 days.

The step by step process of professionally publishing a book: from editor and book design to publishing hardcover, paperback, ebookm and audio.

The Four Book Concepts that Will Give You INFINITE ideas for books you can write.

You will learn all the writing tips I have discovered in my 30 years of writing that have made my books and articles successful.

You will learn the techniques I use to avoid writer's block.

Master the art of the start. What are best practices for starting your book. How to analyze the best first lines to being a book or story.

The art of story-telling. Understand the Arc of the Hero and how it is used in not only fiction, but non-fiction, article writing, and even a tweet.

Learn the methods for calculating the readability quotient of your book.

What are the best practices for marketing your book.

What are the best methods for making a post or book go viral.

Why take this course?

Writing a book, in addition to being an outlet for your creativity, is often the primary way to establish credibility in your industry.

If two people are up for a speaking job, a consulting job, a podcast opportunity, or whatever, the one who has spent the time and effort writing a book will be chosen.

There are many myths about writing that have kept people from the book that is inside them. And EVERYone has a book inside them.

I made this course so people can write a book, and they can do it quickly - in just 30 days.

Now, more than ever before in history, everyone must create their own opportunities. For me, writing books has opened doors into industries and opportunities I could not have imagined.

I want everyone taking this course to experience what I have personally experienced. I have built community, businesses, and have had many adventures because of the directions writing has taken me.

Additionally, it feels good to be creative. To write something you know others will benefit from.

I have written 25 books (so far) over the past 21 years. And many of my friends and associates have asked for my help in writing their own books. So I began looking around to see if there were courses I could show them.

I was getting frustrated that so many courses on writing were not written by published authors or bestselling authors.

I have a theory of learning: plus, minus, equals:


PLUS: learn from the best teachers you can.
EQUALS: compare notes with others in the same position as you.

MINUS: teach what you learn. You don't really understand something unless you explain it simply to someone else.


My published books range from non-fiction to memoir to fiction, a children's book, and even a comic book. I have also written thousands of articles, many of which have had over 1,000,000 views.

Several of my books have been Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestsellers including my books, "Choose Yourself!" and "The Power of No". Additionally, my book, "Reinvent Yourself" was #1 in the entire Amazon store (in addition to being #1 in its various categories).

Many people who have asked me for writing help are excellent entrepreneurs, scientists, athletes, students, and are masters at what they do. But they have not mastered the art of writing.

Which is fine!

They spent their lives being physicists or investors, or athletes, businessmen, etc. Of course they did not have time to learn the nuances of writing a book, the nuances of storytelling. It has been my greatest pleasure to have helped many people birth their dreams into a book.

And when you are done with a book there the sheer pleasure of holding an actual physical book in your hands and saying, "I did this!"

I want you have to that feeling.

In this course you will learn: 

- Why you can you write a book in 30 days.

- The art of good storytelling

- How to come up with great book ideas that can be completed quickly.

- How to write with an authentic voice by asking three key questions about yourself.

- How to analyze a book's readability quotient.

- The keys to writing good first lines and cliffhangers, whether it is for a fiction book or a non-fiction book, or even a tweet.

- Best practices for marketing your book.

- How to avoid writer's block.

- My best tips and tricks for writing effectively.

- How to make writing go viral.

- How to find an editor, a cover designer, an interior designer, an audiobook producer.

- Step by step how to publish your paperback, hardcover, ebook, and audiobook.


Additionally, I have added bonuses of incredible value: 25 interviews I've conducted with writers ranging from Judy Blume, Ken Follet, Steven Pressfield, and many other fiction and non-fiction writers.


With this course, you WILL learn how to write and publish your book in just 30 days.

This course is really good for someone who is currently in the book writing phase and really wants to publish their books, but for someone who is looking for more technical writing guidance from the get-go, maybe this course is not what you're looking for. but I still found this course useful in giving me the motivation to start writing.

This feels a bit like another rich guy telling me how to make a quick buck by parroting NaNoWriMo tips...

James has been in my life for the last eight years. He does not know me (yet!) but he has had such a massive impact on my life. Because of James I took my kids around the world travelling for a year. Because of James I supported my kids when they said they didn't want to go to college, because of James I started a podcast and because of James... I began to write 9and have just published!) my first book: 'The Travel Bog Diaries'. When James announced on his podcast that he had released a course on how to publish a book in 30 days, I couldn't wait to purchase. Although I was very close to finishing my book (it has taken me 2 year, 6 months and 12 days - not that I'm counting...) I needed that extra bit of help to get me over the Amazon line and onto the marketing platform. I am also going to be writing a "book 2" so I figured that I would use James course to save me the next two years! I couldn't be happier with the course. I finished it in one sitting. I knew it would be fabulous and it was. Like having James sit with me in a coffee shop and let me in on some very valuable secrets and techniques. Take the Introduction module for example...I took his advice about making the first line of any book/social media post intriguing and short. When I posted my first marketing post on social media I started the post with: "It was scary. Probably the scariest thing I have ever done." It got so many views and shares so THANK YOU James!! I cannot speak highly enough of you James. You are an inspiration, a genuine giver and a leader in all things out-of-the-box. You make others believe in themselves and that is a very rare gift, indeed. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you do, James, thank you. I highly recommend this course! PS: James very kindly offered all course members to drop a link to their new book so he may review it on Amazon. I'm not sure if you are willing to do this James (and I would be amazed and honoured if you did!) but here is the link to my first ever new book: https://www.amazon.com/Travel-Bog-Diaries-hilarious-confessions-ebook/dp/B0C6XLMS9G/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1JPYCVQKKPL5S&keywords=the+travel+bog+diaries&qid=1686541060&s=books&sprefix=The+travel+bog+%2Cstripbooks-intl-ship%2C318&sr=1-1 Thank you James! I look forward to your review! :)

So far this course is simple, direct, and actionable. I've watched a few sections and have paused to do the activity prompted, which provided a good opportunity to reflect and quickly apply what I've learned. I expect the next sections will also have clear and useful advice. Excited to learn about time management, which I expect to be one of the biggest challenges when writing my first book!

James Altucher is one of a kind and so is his course. He’s interviewed and written about so many interesting people. Even if you can’t write your book in 30 days, you’ll benefit and be inspired by this unique course. 5 ⭐️!

Very nicely done course. Liked it. Though I wish there was more to this course that would keep me motivated to keep writing for the 30 days. I often loose my motivation to write.

I can't imagine learning to write a book from anyone other than James. I highly recommend this course – I absolutely love it!

Great course. I finished in one day, as James uses his own techniques of storytelling to keep you hooked. I'm inspired to start writing today, and hope to send him my first book for review in about a month. Thanks James for sharing your hard-earned insight with aspiring writers.

I feel like I have more clarity on what to do and I am more excited to start writing my book than what I was before I started the course
