Just because you don't write "for the money" doesn't mean you don't deserve to get paid.

You Can - and Should - Earn a Solid Income From Your Writing.

Here's How - in 10 Easy Steps.


The average working writer earns less than $10,000 a year.

They should be doing better than that. Much better. If they knew Lionel Bender, they most certainly would.

On Thursday, September 8 (with lifetime on-demand replay) join Lionel for How to Earn Money as a Children's Writer, and find out how to build a profitable career using his 10-step system.

It's not about "selling out" or making drastic changes to your lifestyle or writing interests.

It is about working smarter, finding hidden opportunities, learning some new skills and knowing the right way to stand up for yourself and declare "I deserve to be paid!".

On September 8th, you'll learn those things and a whole lot more.

(By the way, this workshop is applicable to children’s illustrators. If you're struggling to find your footing as an illustrator, join us!)


Here's Lionel's path to financial success for children's writers, distilled from more than 40 years of experience into 10 simple steps :

During this 90+ minute workshop, Lionel will guide you through each step, giving practical, hands-on guidance and plenty of real-world examples.

You'll be amazed at how much money you've left on the table and very excited about your earning potential moving forward.

Whether your goal is quitting your current job and writing fulltime, or just earning enough to help with your household expenses, Lionel will give you the tools and knowledge you need to make your writing time profitable and rewarding.

During his 40+ year career, Lionel Bender has authored more than 70 kidlit books , and has been responsible for over 1,400 other children’s works as writer, editor and book packager.

No one knows more about the business side of publishing. And, as those of you who've attended his other Children's Book Insider webinars know, he's a brilliant teacher.

On September 8th, he's ready to change your writing life and your bank account forever.
