This project has been over a year in the making. It started when the Farland School of Fiction decided to train and create a group of authors as coaches in the David Farland method. David Farland (Wolverton) was an author, mentor, and friend to many. He instructed many great names in the industry, like Brandon Sanderson, Stephenie Meyer, James Dashner, and many more. David passed in 2022, but they wanted his legacy to continue. They created the Certified Farland Fiction Coaches to continue teaching using the Farland method.

Four other graduates and I banded together to create a book elaborating on what we learned and the advantages of having a writing teacher and mentor. We wrote stories illustrating those techniques and commentaries delving into writing methods. The book is worth the stories alone. This novel is for anyone enjoying good stories; if you have thoughts on writing, you can benefit even more.

It did not stop there. Four additional friends and students of David Farland (Wolverton) joined us: Kevin J Anderson, Rebecca Moesta, Kary English, and D. T. Read. Plus, David Farland joined the writers listed. 

This novel consists of stories ranging from angelic presences, fantasy, science fiction, and distant worlds to a land so different that there are no humans but a race that uses music to communicate. There is even a story for a younger audience—something for everyone.

It gets even better. Supporting our Backerkit project also aids up-and-coming writers who may not have the funds to attend classes and learn. Proceeds from this Backerkit project will be donated to the David Farland Endowment Scholarship for Superstars Writers Seminars. David's scholarship provides attendance, flight, and hotel accommodations to those who cannot otherwise attend.
