Theodore P. Savas has been fielding requests for help on a wide range of issues from new and veteran authors for many years. Ted has been in the publishing arena for three decades and knows all the tips, tricks, and hard work needed to succeed.

He is also an award-winning author and editor, the ghost-writer of dozens of books, an agent, entrepreneur, attorney, and co-founder of the hot tech startup Cubestream (now in early beta). Click HERE to read more about Mr. Savas or check out his Wiki page HERE.

These Zoom sessions (each about 90 minutes in length) apply to non-fiction and fiction, and work regardless of whether you want to write for magazines, blogs, publish books, or simply write for the joy of it without ever being published.

These are not micro-lessons on grammar and word usage. Why not?
Because that is not what you need.
That will NOT help you.

These fun and informative classes will teach you simple structural and organizational principles to save you months and even years of wasted time so you can begin, organize, set goals, pick a topic, routinize your schedule, build a brand, establish your voice, find the right publisher, and save $$$ on taxes as an author -- and much more. Ted will help you reach your goals.

These principles apply to everything you could write, fiction or nonfiction!

Bookmark this page as we begin preparing and scheduling the sessions and spread the word. Each numbered session has specific information. If you miss one, I will rehost them later in order and you can always swing back and pick up the session.

SESSION 1: WHAT YOU MUST KNOW BEFORE YOU BEGIN YOUR WRITING JOURNEY

When: Not Yet rescheduled, 2023, 7:00 p.m. EST. 6:00 p.m. CST, 4:00 p.m. PST  

This session is personalized to YOU. I will offer you a host of questions you MUST answer yourself before you set foot on the writing road, before you pick a topic, and before you have an end game in mind. The vast majority of "writers" begin without realizing they are starting in a ditch in a car without wheels. Let me teach you how to avoid the ditch altogether. If you have already begun writing, this will clarify the game for you. A clear-headed start with an end game in mind is a roadmap to success.
