In this live, high-value webinar, author and publishing guide Melissa Bond will walk you through the 15 most common query-letter red flags that can make an agent stop reading before they ever get to your pages. Warmly. Clearly. Without making you feel like you need to hide under a desk with a sleeve of crackers.
This page will allow you to thee the current calendared courses.
More we will be added and this page will be updated as available.

Why I built this
Why I built this:
"This course suite is built because I put thoughtful, smart work into this process, spent sooo much money, and still didn't have a book deal. It took way to long, way to many revisions, and I wasted way to much time; in the end I got the book deal, but I realized that I could assemble a team and build a system so that you and authors like you don't need to waste precious time and money trying to find the trail. Here we skip the trail; the BDMC system is the jet pack to the top- you leave with a finished packet, subsission ready, leads to submit to and for a fraction of the cost in time, effort and money."
THIS is your professional education track.
You can do what I did... worked for years, (made progress), had professionals help with editorial refinement (very important) created my packet (didn't know why I kept getting rejected... it looked amazing!?), kept going.
I hired a professional to teach me the path- he basically said "yeah, nice work, that's not how it's done".
I worked MORE INTENSELY.
I learned the roadmap,
hacked my way UP THAT MOUNTAIN...
got a book deal.
I worked smart and hard, and it took years.
That was a lot.
My author friends saw all of it and stared.
I created this for you.
No more roadless wandering, swimming in your art and so many details.
This is the rocket to the top.
