“I highly recommend Ian Chandler’s No B.S. Course on Freelance Writing. Ian is an excellent, responsive instructor who understands the needs of his students. The course is an in-depth look at starting your career as a freelance writer and will give you the confidence and tools you need to get published – and get paid for it. Since taking Ian’s class, I’ve become more confident in selling my services as a writer and in sharing my experience with others. After taking Ian’s class, the money I was able to earn from my writing allowed me to finally visit my family in Brazil (it had been 5 years since I had last been there). The material in Ian’s course is easy to understand and actionable, and you will come out of this course feeling (and acting) like a professional writer who gets paid for your words.”

Frequently Asked Questions

When does the course start?
Class officially starts on August 28th!
What if I can’t make it to the live webinars and Q&A sessions?
No worries! All of the webinars will be recorded so you can watch them on your own time. You’ll also be able to send in questions ahead of time, so you can be sure you’ll be included in the Q&A session.
What if I need to start making a full time income right now?
This is not a get rich quick scheme. You’re not going to start making tons of money right away. However, the course will give you the tools, knowledge, and resources you need to build a sustainable, long term income. If you need money right now, this course won’t help. If you want a sustainable career as a writer, this course is for you.
How long do I have access to the course?
You have full access to the course as long as you’re a member of Writing Launch. Once the 6 week course is complete, you’ll be able to come back and refer to the course material at any time. You’ll be able to replay the webinars, review old assignments and worksheets, and explore all of the course material as much as you want.
I live abroad, does this still apply to me?
One of the amazing things about freelance writing is that you can work anywhere. As long as you still have Internet access, you can build a successful career. So yes, the class definitely applies to you.
