In the last two years, I’ve coached over 170 fantasy writers in my various programs, passing on everything I’ve learned from publishing my own four fantasy novels.

This has helped a lot of writers finish their first drafts, achieve major breakthroughs with their stories, and some of them — like Peter Christensen and Michael Johnson — are even planning to publish their debut novels in the next few months.

I recently surveyed these 170 writers to ask:

What’s the most useful writing lesson you gained from working with me?

And today, I’ll be sharing their top 10 most impactful lessons…

…some of which actually surprised me.
