    Are the videos in your course different from the videos available here on RUclips? I'm debating if I need the full course or just the workbook. Thank you for the time you put into helping authors!

      Good question, it is a blend of both videos on the channel and new videos, and in the order you should watch them. The course and the workbook come together. They are not separate.

      @@CreatedbySusanMontgomery That is great! I look forward to seeing you in the course. It also comes with the community forum to ask me questions and to attend weekly Q&As that I am hosting for the next four weeks.

    Excuse me, but you didn´t say whether the courses are free of charge or not, and if not, could you tell me how much you charge. I am particularly interested in how to make a blue print, even though I have in fact almost finished writing my memoir, in three parts, with a total of sixty six chapters. I have been polishing the writing for years and am still doing so, and I have improved the original structure and order more than once. My problem is that now I understand from watching your instructive and encouraging videos (better late than never!) that I must remove at least a third of my words in order to fit my work into the average memoir size, and I will probably have to sacrifice some themes dear to me. Everything I wrote seems relevant to me, so the result may well be too long winded for the reader, but how can I know what words to remove? Perhaps I could put aside some themes and keep them for a second memoir. As it is now, my memoir covers some sixty years, three continents, five countries, and people from five generations, so it cannot be short. Please advise me on how to get out of this dilemma.
