So come write with me, and let’s write a better book!

👱‍♀️ About Me: I’m Shirley Jump, a New York Times, USA Today, Amazon, Publishers Weekly, and Wall Street Journal bestselling author of 85 books published in 24 countries. I’ve worked for 4 of the big 5 New York publishers and have self-published, so I’m a bit of a hybrid author. I’m currently writing for Harper Collins and Hachette, and working on a brand-new series with you guys on this channel. Literally writing the book with you all! Look for my how-to book, Writing Compelling Fiction, on Amazon.



🫤 How’d I Get Here? I wrote TEN books in 8 years before I sold my first one. I was rejected from pretty much everyone in the business, and even quit writing for a while because I was so disheartened. It hasn’t been all rainbows and unicorns since that first sale, which is why I’m here to help you learn how to write a better book, so that you can avoid the tough-knocks road I took. So come write with me, and let’s write a better book!

👱‍♀️ About Me: I’m Shirley Jump, a New York Times, USA Today, Amazon, Publishers Weekly, and Wall Street Journal bestselling author of 85 books published in 24 countries. I’ve worked for 4 of the big 5 New York publishers and have self-published, so I’m a bit of a hybrid author. I’m currently writing for Harper Collins and Hachette, and working on a brand-new series with you guys on this channel. Literally writing the book with you all! Look for my how-to book, Writing Compelling Fiction, on Amazon.



🫤 How’d I Get Here? I wrote TEN books in 8 years before I sold my first one. I was rejected from pretty much everyone in the business, and even quit writing for a while because I was so disheartened. It hasn’t been all rainbows and unicorns since that first sale, which is why I’m here to help you learn how to write a better book, so that you can avoid the tough-knocks road I took. So come write with me, and let’s write a better book!
