Nick Stephenson & Joe Nassise – Story Engines

YOUR PROVEN “BESTSELLER BLUEPRINT”

A few months ago, I shared the story of an author from Phoenix, AZ, who had developed a system for writing a novel within 60 days.

Joseph Nassise – a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of over 30 novels – showed us how his blueprint took him from writing one book a year to five or six books a year – helping him grow his readership and exposure by tens of thousands of loyal fans and over 1,000,000 books in print (both traditionally published and self-published).

Once people saw Joe’s approach, they went crazy (good crazy) and bombarded me with questions – specifically, how can Joe produce such top-quality novels in such a short time and keep readers coming back for more?

After hearing this question again and again, I reached out to Joe and asked him to share every little detail of exactly how he did it – and how you can use his process for your own books.

This is Joe’s story…
ENTER JOE: THE POWER OF  STORY

Hi, Joe Nassise here.

I’m a New York Times and USA Today international bestselling fiction author and writing coach with more than a million copies of my books in print around the world.

Nick and I developed the Story Engines training to help other authors understand the power that exists inside their stories and how they can use that power to grow and expand their writing careers.

Taken from over 10 years of publishing experience and over 40 books written – both traditionally published and self-published – the Story Engines “bestseller blueprint” will help you write faster, produce better drafts, and keep your readers coming back for more – time and time again.

All of which – of course – means more readers and more sales for you.

DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?

Have you ever thought to yourself, “How does that author sell so many books? Mine are just as good!” or “What makes that book so special?” or “How does that author find enough hours in the day?” I know I have. I didn’t start out a New York Times bestseller, I assure you.

I struggled to write even one full-length book a year when I started out, needing multiple drafts on each one to get the story right – rather than using that time to produce additional manuscripts and building my audience – meaning I missed out on that extra income and exposure.

But after a couple of years of writing and publishing books, and still not having anywhere near the sales I needed to be able to make a living – never mind a comfortable one – with my work, I knew I had to do something. I saw other authors’ books performing significantly ahead of mine, and I thought to myself: “I know my books are at least as good as these – why am I struggling so much?”

My reviews, when I got them, were good. People genuinely liked my work, but it took me too long to produce it at the quality level I desired (and the work deserved!) I needed to do something, but I didn’t know what. I was so frustrated.

So I decided to make a change. And Story Engines was born.
IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE THIS WAY

I spent months learning to change my approach – going through a “mad scientist phase” to find out what works. Rather than focusing on the mechanics of the process, I looked at the “whys” behind it.

In other words: why did I like that particular novel or that specific movie? What was it about that story that drew me in and kept me entertained, often for hours at a time?

Then, once I knew the answers to those questions, I developed a system to incorporate those elements and details into my own work – as efficiently as possible.

Once I had a plan and a process to do that, I set out to make sure it was replicable. I didn’t want to do it just once – I didn’t want to be a one-hit wonder.

What I wanted was a system I could use every time I sat down to start a new project, ensuring my success long before the book was ready for my readers.
HERE’S WHAT I DISCOVERED

Once I learned to focus on the right things (and ignore everything else) my entire writing career changed.

I went from writing a single novel a year to writing four, sometimes five or six full-length projects.

I went from working with one publisher to working with 4 in the U.S. alone, never mind the foreign translations sales that suddenly started coming my way.

A few short months later, I quit my day job in the information technology industry to become a full-time author.

Ten years later, I have more than 38 novels in my name from multiple publishers around the world, on top of an internationally successful series that I independently self-published myself.

Bottom line: once I learned what I’m going to show you inside Story Engines, I was able to spend all day doing what I love, with the people I love.

If you could do the same, what would that mean for you?
THE STORY ENGINES SYSTEM

It doesn’t matter whether you write thrillers, mysyteries, romance, science-fiction, horror, fantasy, LGBT novels, or paranormal westerns about an evil unicorn named Brutus, narrative non-fiction, or anything else you can think of – this system works.

It works because you are finally able to do justice to the story you are trying to tell, which in turn attracts the type of readers that will devour your work, time and time again, delivering the sales you need to build a lasting career.

The best part? It isn’t a crazy complicated system that takes months to master. All you need are seven key elements arranged in the right order and a willingness to implement what I’ll show you.

In short, you will finally have a way to produce stories that you can be proud of in less time than you’ve ever needed before, without all the wasted rewrites and hours upon hours of editing.

And you can do it again and again and again…

I’ve developed a system you can use that works – regardless of the types or genres of books you write.
THREE STUDENTS WHO GOT GREAT RESULTS

Making Money Doing What He Loves:

“Working with Joe helped me rediscover the writer’s voice I thought I had lost from years of being in a different industry. He was also correct in convincing me that my voice and style is marketable… I have the cheques now to prove it!”

— Ken Lillie-Paetz, Joe’s coaching student & author of the Elsinore comics

Award Winning Fiction and Publishing Deals:

“Joe helped me understand plot loopholes, why some things worked and others didn’t, and why I should keep believing in my vision, which, I think, is the biggest thing a writer wants.

Exactly one year later, I have three agent offers for my manuscript, all with decent publishing houses. Had it not been for Joe, my current reality might have been quite different.”

From Blank Page to Published in Just 2 Months:

“I started watching [one of Joe’s videos] while on holiday. Two months on, guess what? My book goes live tomorrow! Thanks to the fab advice was easier to write and in my opinion loads better than my first book.”

— El Edwards, author of the Gloddfa Bont Romantic Comedies and the Charlie Diamond Mysteries – taken from Joe’s “The 60 Day Author – Planning, Plotting, and Structure” video class
STORY ENGINES: HERE’S HOW IT BREAKS DOWN

The 7 Key Elements of Blockbuster Storytelling

Every good story – from the wildest sci-fi romps to the grittiest crime dramas, steamiest romances, and most exciting adventures – is made up of 7 key elements: 4 distinct phases and 3 game-changing moments.

When you implement the Story Engines system, you’ll see just how easy it is to use this blueprint to come up with new ideas quickly, turn those ideas into compelling narratives, and structure, plan, plot and write your books in record time.

And, because you’ve put the Story Engines system in place, your drafts will be better – requiring less work – and, more importantly, your stories will connect with readers on a deep emotional level.

All of which means you’ll write faster, more effectively, with less stress, and have readers begging you for more. And when you put our marketing systems in place, you’ll find new readers coming to you daily – meaning more exposure and sales for you.
HOW DOES STORY ENGINES GET RESULTS?

Do you ever wish there were more hours in the day for your writing? Do you spend too much time writing and rewriting and rewriting again just to find the heart of your story? Do you find yourself getting partway through a draft only to abandon it in the middle, uncertain of where you are going or just what to write next? After you’ve finished your book, do you think to yourself, “What do I do next?”

I know I did. At least, until I figured out the power of a story told in just the right fashion. Once I did, my production exploded – without increasing the amount of time I spent on projects – and readers were devouring my books in droves. Since then, I haven’t looked back.

And guess what? I’m going to show you exactly how you can do the same. No “fluffy bunny” thinking here, only proven, ethical, and easy-to-replicate techniques that will allow you to write better stories faster– putting you in direct control of your success.

Nick and I will also show you proven and ethical marketing systems to find thousands of new readers – helping you market and sell your work without resorting to “scammy” tactics or spending all your time on social media.

In short – whatever stage you’re at, we’ve got your detailed step-by-step writing, publishing, and marketing plan ready and waiting for you inside the Story Engines training program.

YOUR VIP BONUSES

You’ve used the Story Engines blueprint to write your next – or your first – book… but what happens next? We’ve put together these exclusive bonuses to take you from “draft” to “published and making sales”, whether you choose the traditionally published route, or you decide to self-publish independently.

Here’s what we’ve got lined up for you when you enroll today:

TO EXPLAIN MORE, IT’S BACK TO NICK…

Ok, let’s break it down. To be a successful author, you only need two things:

(1) Great books

(2) An audience of fans to sell to

Focusing on just one of those things is only part of the story. After all, if you’re releasing book after book into a black void, who’s going to read them?

Now that you’ve written your next blockbuster using the Story Engines system, it’s time to show you the next steps – how to publish and how to sell.

Whether you choose to go the traditionally published route or self-published, we’ve got you covered with these bonuses. Here’s what’s in store when you enroll today:

BONUS ONE: THE PATH TO PUBLICATION

Ok, so you’ve finished your first draft. Now What?

It’s time to decide which path to publication you’d like to follow. Will you go the traditional route and submit to agents and publishers?

Or will you go the self-published route and do it all yourself?

You may even decide to do both – submit some books to publishing houses and publish some yourself.

Whichever route you’re thinking of, we’ve got you covered. In this bonus session, we’ll show you the pros and cons of each option to help you decide which is best for you, and, more importantly, we’ll give you a step-by-step roadmap to get your books onto the shelves (whether digital or physical or both).

The publishing process can be overwhelming… so let us break it down for you. Within a couple of hours, you’ll be ahead of 99% of everyone else.
BONUS TWO: THE THREE STEP FORMULA TO GROW YOUR READERSHIP AND SALES

Let’s face it – even the best books in the world won’t find success unless there is an audience ready and waiting to read it.

So many authors confuse “marketing hacks” like trying to scam the Amazon algorithms – or “busy for the sake of busy” approaches like building a Twitter following and hanging out on social media – with REAL marketing.

Effective marketing means only three things: Finding readers, getting readers to stick around, and learning how to “sell” to readers without being “sleazy”.

I’ve developed a three-step formula to take the stress out of marketing your books. It’s the exact process I – and thousands of my students – have used to attract tens of thousands of loyal, repeat readers and sell hundreds of thousands of books.

In this bonus session I’ll break down this formula for you, and show you the only three marketing activities you need to worry about – meaning better results for you, with less time spent going crazy on social media or spending $$$ on ads.
BONUS THREE: YOUR NETWORKING & SUPPORT COMMUNITY

The most effective studies are undertaken as part of a group – so we’ve got you covered with lifetime access to the customers-only Facebook group, where hundreds of other authors are there to help you succeed.

The 10k Readers team, as well as Joe and I are active on the group every day – so you’ll get the help and support you need to overcome your biggest hurdles, increase your effectiveness, and smash through your writing goals.

This group is the perfect place to find an accountability partner, a “manuscript swap” partner, and a forum for you to discuss ideas, celebrate wins, and take your networking to a whole new level.

We don’t believe anyone should be in this alone – and we know from extensive testing that active members of our community get disproporationate results.

MORE STUDENT TESTIMONIALS

“Tonight, I watched the first video with Joe Nassise on going from idea to plotted novel… 3 hours later I have a fully plotted novel! All this after I haven’t written for 6 months.”

— Chele Cook, author of Science Fiction and Fantasy, from Joe’s “The 60 Day Author – Planning, Plotting & Structure” Video Class

I spent a lot of time and money seriously looking for a course that would help me establish a story structure that made sense to me and really explained the process in a way that was very accessible and repeatable.

Story Engines accomplished that far beyond my expectations. It’s an excellent system that’s easily tailored to any writer’s needs. It is THE BEST money I’ve spent on my education as a writer, and I’ve been at this professionally for well over a decade.

It’s a killer course. Get it!

— Fran Friel, two-time Bram Stoker Award Finalist and Winner of the Black Quill Award

“Story Engines is not just for novice writers. It can revolutionize any writer’s process. Before I bought the Story Engines course, I had written–and edited–eight novels.

I wrote my ninth novel using the Story Engines process.  That novel drafted faster and was easier to edit than anything else I’ve written so far. Story Engines is one of the best investments I’ve made in my writing career.

Do this. It will save you time and hair-pulling frustration, plus it will enable you to make more money.”

Essentially, Story Engines is your A-Z of writing and publishing – either as an independent self-published author, or as a traditionally published author. The strategies are the same whatever stage you’re at, whatever genre you write, and whatever publishing route you choose to take.

It all comes down to those two things:

(1) Writing great books – as effectively as possible

(2) Building an engaged audience to sell to.

We’ll show you exactly how to do both inside the Story Engines premium training program. And here are some more examples of students who have been through Nick’s marketing training courses and got amazing results:

TRIPLED HER PLATFORM: “Within a few weeks, my fiction fanbase more than tripled – and conversion rates on my non-fiction website improved by over 50%. And with over 80,000 visitors a month, that makes a big difference!

I recommend Nick’s course if you’re just starting out, OR if you’re ready to take your author platform to the next level.”

Joanna Penn, New York Times & USA Today Bestselling Author of Fiction and Non-Fiction.

RECORD-BREAKING INDIE LAUNCH: “Nick’s system helped me more than triple my email list. I rarely endorse anyone, ever, for much of anything.

I’d gladly pay whatever it cost to take my launch to a new level. His approach did. I see no reason it wouldn’t work for other authors, either established or not. Consider this an endorsement. That should speak volumes.”

Russell Blake, New York Times & USA Today Bestselling Author

AUTOMATED HIS MARKETING: “Following Nick Stephenson’s techniques and spot-on, always humorous coaching I was able to increase my author platform four fold in about as many months…

And this is while simultaneously writing two books and negotiating a publishing contract.”

Matthew Iden, Bestselling Author of The Marty Singer series of Thrillers

And while the above testimonials are from Nick’s marketing courses, some of the key strategies these students used to get results are waiting for you inside Story Engines – helping take your latest book and get it into the hands of new readers.

So, now you’re thinking to yourself, “What’s the next step?”
