Nonfiction Book Accelerator, Summer 2025
This class is exclusively for writers who have already competed “The Art of Writing a Nonfiction Book That Reads Like a Novel” and at least one session of “Nonfiction Book Accelerator” in 2024 or 2025. It’s designed to help you push forward with your full nonfiction manuscript, and to receive constructive, actionable feedback.
The accelerator will run for 12 to 16 weeks, depending on class size, starting on Wednesday, July 2. During that time frame, each writer will have 2 chances to submit up to 15 new pages of your book and receive feedback from the instructor and your peers, plus an additional 3rd chance to receive feedback from one peer.
We'll also have biweekly Zoom class sessions on Wednesdays from 7 to 8:30pm ET. We'll have brief discussions to start each class but the primary focus will be on workshopping.
The goal of this accelerator is to give each of you the chance to keep working on your book projects and receive personalized feedback in a small group setting, so that by the end of this class you will have made significant progress towards a full draft of your book.
This is an intensive workshop-based class and all students are required to read and review two different peers’ 15-page submissions during each two-week time span.
Given that this is a summer class, it's understandable that not everyone will be able to make every live session, but we ask that everyone joining make sure they can attend at least 6 of the live sessions.
