This is someone that has a fanbase, and it’s a 4 ½ star.”

Connecting with Jason

I have a very extensive webinar on this subject.  You can check it out at RealFastResults.com/bonzai.  And, if you haven’t picked up a copy of Write and Grow Rich, which is an anthology that I recently contributed to, you should buy one for $0.99 soon.  They are selling for that right now, since we are in pre-publication.  If you get it now, you will also receive a big package of really great bonuses.  For example, there’s one that will help you learn to emulate New York Times bestselling covers for your Kindle books, for free, using Canva.  There are other great bonuses, contributed by other authors of the book as well.  As previously stated, you can check out this offer at RealFastResults.com/wagr.
