@Rashmir B Hello - the only thing in there right now is the nano course and it unlocks at Level 2. In time we will add more resources for higher levels too. :) We have some really fun plans for the new year in particular.

Welcome!
No Luck With Non-Fiction Book Writing Programs
It seems that most book-writing programs are geared towards fiction novels. I was so happy to find Atticus. It really seemed like a great program for me to use. After one day I discovered that the navigation pane on the left margin only shows H1 headings. I need H2, & H3 to organize my work. Other programs do not handle Footnote/Endnotes well which is extremely important for me. Guess I have to go back to MS Word.

I prefer Word ... but have you look at Dibbly Create? I do like their platform as well but I haven't tested their footnotes.
Do you experience writer's block? If so, how do you combat it?
Writer's block can mean different things to different people. For instance, one person might describe it exactly the way it sounds: totally blocked. For others, myself included, it could be more like internal resistance to writing. It's not a fun experience either way! To combat that writer's block or resistance, I've found writing sprints to be really helpful. Something about setting a timer for a short amount of time and only committing to writing until the timer goes off helps me immensely. Plus, once I get going, it's so much easier to KEEP going! What about you? Do you have any tried and true tips for combatting writer's block or feelings of resistance when it comes to writing? Please share!

For me ... I ask my buddy Chatty (ChatGPT) for something to get me started if I am stumped. I feel like a blank page is my enemy but if I just have SOMETHING to start with I can remove all the words in editing but hit a good pace.
Which type of domain should I use for my author site?
Hello Everyone, I have a question for Book Launchers, but everyone else can add your thoughts if you like: I would like to know which is better. 1. Create an author website based on my name, or... 2. Create an author website based on a publishing company name. I keep going back and forth as to which path I should take. I want to use a publishing company domain as the author website. I could still make the website about me, but the domain would be the name of my publishing company. How would this compare to finding a domain name based on my name? I guess it could be good, in a way, because once I secure a domain using my name, it would always belong to me, and I could use it to promote whatever I'm doing at the moment. But also, I'm think that a domain assocociated with a particualr niche, like "Wholistic Health," would also be good because this is an easy phrase for people to remember, and it might rank high in the search results. I guess I don't know the pros and cons between the two choices, so I keep going back and fourth between the two. I don't want to start building the website and then change my mind, so this is why I'm hesitating with this. Any thoughts on this would be helpful. -Thanks Also, can you please respond to my poll?

Unless you plan to promote other people's books I would absolutely use your own name for your author website. People will be searching for you after a podcast interview or a talk, bit your publishing company name. People will remember you (you're the brand) not the publishing company.
