Start here!
Hi, I'm Anita and I help aspiring authors become published authors without the overwhelm.
...but I had no idea where to start!
I had lots of ideas, but didn't know how to turn these ideas into actual stories...
I tried to write, but my stories always fizzled out and I didn't understand what was wrong...
I knew that my drafts were terrible, but didn't have the skills to improve them...
I was clueless about the world of publishing!
And then, I discovered flash fiction, which changed everything for me.
Flash fiction is the art of writing a story in 1000 words or fewer.
Learning how to write very short texts was a game changer. Within a few months, I was a published author and I was winning competitions. It opened publishing doors I hadn't even realised existed!
I am now an award-winning, internationally published author of over a dozen books.
step by step
with ease and joy
without overwhelm - ever!
fast!

But hear me out.
Unlike novels, flash fiction allows you to write and edit in very short bursts of time.
Flash fiction is a busy writer's dream!
There is no better writing teacher than a strict word count. Flash fiction teaches you the VITAL skills to cut right to the bones of any story. This, in turn, will help you with your novel - or anything else you want to write in the future!
Flash fiction is in high demand: there are lots of fantastic online and print journals waiting to share your work with the world.
Great for your writing cv: getting your flash fiction published is amazing! Because now you can call yourself a published author and get all the kudos that comes with that. It will also show a future agent or publisher that you're serious about your work.
Flash fiction is hands-down the fastest, easiest and most efficient way to become a published author.
Are you ready to learn the art and craft of flash fiction in 8 weeks or less? Join me at the 30-minute writer!
Writing and editing regularly for short bursts of time is the quickest and simplest way to build a consistent writing habit and a body of work you can be proud of. This is why I put together my course, The 30-minute Writer, which supports you every step of the way to becoming a published author.
"Anita has a rare eye for detail as well as for the big picture, and cuts right to the bones of your manuscript, in a way that doesn’t hurt. She sees the magic of your writing, but also where and why it’s not coming through. She is quick, she brims with ideas and energy and is absolutely honest. Oh, and did I mention her extraordinary capacity of packing the essence of a novel into a few lines of blurb? "
Nika Teran, Author of Sisters in Delft
"If you want your uninhibited , amazingly creative writer within released to flourish and grow, I recommend Anita’s course."
