I just need advice to write/publish my book. Can you help?

Absolutely. For that, we have Reedsy Learning, a series of free online courses that provides insights into the writing, publishing, and book marketing processes. These courses are taught by some of the top professionals in the industry, as well as with publishing companies we have partnered with.

Each course includes 10 bite-size, five-minute lessons that will be delivered straight to your inbox one by one over the course of 10 days. And did we mention they’re free? You can sign up to multiple courses at any given moment, but we recommend taking them one at a time to better take the material in! 🤓
