The Secrets of ‘Not So Famous’ Well-Paid Writers
Message: How to make a great living as a writer when you don’t have all the talent of a world-class author…
Hi Writer, (or soon-to-be)
Rebecca Matter here – I’m so excited hear your questions about my 9 Ways to Make a Very Good Living as a Writer report. Have you read it yet?
If not, I still wanted to touch base today and tell you a little about the simplicity of writing for a living…
Write the way you speak!
Doesn’t seem like such a big ask, does it?
Famous author Stephen King has this simple success ‘secret.’ He stays away from flowery, old-fashioned language. Instead, his writing is conversational. The reader really feels like it’s a personal chat they’re having.
King says “I don’t believe ‘With a hammer he killed Frank’ will ever replace ‘He killed Frank with a hammer.’”
I agree with him wholeheartedly!
You DON’T need to be a famous author to use King’s secret AND make your own great living as a writer. (To be clear, I’m not promising his kind of royalties.)
But a solid six, even seven figures is quite within the reach of ‘not so famous’ writers.
These writers have a simple, yet little known skill King doesn’t need as a book author.
Today, my friend Mindy gives you the scoop on where to find this simple skill.
And how she used it to kick-start her six-figure income at home while starting a family.
Lucky for her, she loves watching the sun rise from her home office in New Mexico. So, lots of her writing ‘work’ is done before her kids even jump out of bed each day!
Go here to see how you can follow in Mindy’s footsteps, from beginner to well-paid ‘not so famous’ writer.
Make sure you keep an eye out for my free e-letter “The Writers’ Life” too. I’ve always got so much to tell you about the best ways to get started as a well-paid writer. I don’t want you to miss out.
To your success,

It’s NOT too Late to Launch Your Writing Career
Message: Discover the steps you can take towards a career change to writing. Even if you’re a veteran of the corporate world.
Dear First Name,
Nicole spent almost the past three DECADES in brand development. But as we know these days, that didn’t mean her job was safe.
Early in 2016 she took a huge hit…
Nicole’s boss flew across the country to lay her off . (A recently divorced single mom with a freshly re-financed mortgage to-boot.)
Ironically, a month prior, Nicole had a light-bulb moment when she was looking for a writer to work on a project with her. Learning a new writing skill to earn extra cash on the side writing in the evenings was an interesting idea.
Maybe even
An escape plan from the corporate world some day?
So Nicole spent a small amount on purchasing what she now knows is … how to learn the same ‘secret’ skill as well-paid writers.
When she lost her job, instead of panicking, she kicked her career change into high gear. She set herself to studying this simple, yet little-known writer’s skill.
Nicole’s now built a new career that pays the bills.
And spending time with her son just got a lot easier!
Here’s what she said about her lifestyle today.
“I recently went with my son and 90-year-old father to the UK and France for more than two weeks. And, I was able to keep up with my work while there,” she says. “I found a little island off the coast of Brittany where someday I would love to rent a house for a month or two and write from there.”
Remember Mindy? I’ve mentioned her in the last two emails. I wanted to remind you to take a look take a look at what you’re missing out on.
She escaped the corporate world by resigning. She’d had enough! She didn’t wait for a lay-off…
Mindy knows the same ‘secret’ writing skill Nicole discovered.
A skill that helped her step-by-step towards her career change to well-paid writer too.
So, if you think you’ve worked too long in one career to make the leap to the writers’ life … think again.

Your Perfect Lifestyle as a New Writer is Waiting
Message: 10 reasons to make the leap to a new career as a freelance writer today …
Hi First Name,
Over the last few days, I’ve shared stories about Mindy and some of her writer friends. And invited you to ask any questions about how to get started … but I haven’t heard from you. So, please excuse me if I’m a little blunt today.
Can you tell me what’s holding you back?
Maybe you love your job and the money but hate the long hours?
Maybe you hate your job but aren’t sure you can learn the skills to make a living as a writer? ( I assure you, you can!)
Maybe you LOVE your co-workers but HATE your boss?
Maybe you’re not getting paid what you’re worth?
Maybe you just can’t stand waking up early to the same ol’ routine and driving half way across town to get there?
Ouch!
So, I wanted to share 10 simple reasons to start your freelance writing career today.
Feel the joy … every day …
- Time freedom – write on your own schedule.
- Freedom to ‘work from anywhere’ – wherever you can open a computer – the beach, a ski chalet, a rocky mountain top.
- No commuting time – decide to work from home all year and enjoy the time you save. (Even if it’s just to goof off.)
- No money spent on traveling to the office – keep your gas money and your car expenses to spend on your trip to, say, Bora Bora!
- Be your own boss – work for yourself without a nosey boss looking over your shoulder or grumbling co-workers.
- Enjoy your creativity – you can write about anything you want.
- Choose your own co-workers – if you want to collaborate on a writing project you can.
- Be a stay-at-home parent AND enjoy a lucrative career – enough said!
- Get well-paid – writers write their own paycheck. When you know a ‘secret’ skill, you can get paid well even for a few hundred words. (My friend Mindy shares how in a moment.)
- Re-invent your perfect lifestyle – as often as you want.
So, there you have it. That’s a perfect 10 out of 10!
Here’s what Mindy said about escaping the corporate cubicle for freelance writing …
“My current definition of success is being able to pace myself to take meaningful breaks to spend time with my kids,” she said. “There are always more projects to pursue. But my kids are little just once, so balance is the biggest definition of success for me right now.”
Go here to see how Mindy changed her career path. You deserve to see if this is a good fit for you
To you success,
