There are many programs, conferences and books that help writers master their art, but very few teach writers to become authors. I blend my background as a Green Beret with my equally long career as an author and teach writers how to become successful authors in today's rapidly changing publishing environment.
Susan Wiggs (#1 NY Times best-seller): "Bob Mayer is a gifted writer and a generous teacher."
Terry Brooks (#1 NY Times best-seller): "An invaluable resourse for beginning & seasoned writers. Don't miss out."
Elizabeth George (NY Times best-seller): "Something for every writer. My hat is off to Bob."
John Tulliius (Director Maui Writers Conference): "Fiction writers everywhere will have the advantage of Bob Mayer's teaching wisdom."
Chicken Soup Creator Jack Canfield: "In WHO DARES WINS, Bob Mayer gives us a unique and valuable window into the shadowy world of our country's elite fighting forces and how you can apply many of the concepts and strategies they use for success in your own life and organization."
Lewis Merletti, former head of the Secret Service, Special Forces Veteran, and Cleveland Browns Executive VP and COO: "Success in life- as in combat- has always demanded a depth of character. WHO DARES WINS reveals what it takes for you to move into the world of elite warriors and how their training developed that Can Do spirit and Special Forces ethos of excellence."

"Bob Mayer is full of info. He was the only speaker aside from agents and editors who had something new for me. I'm talking about: Plot is a series of events & characters make a story. I especially like how he uses his military backgrund to find a writer's weakness in personality typing. That weakness is what holds a writer back." Skhye Moncrief.
"As depressing as it is to realize I have to start all over again, the two-day event this past weekend was well worth the investment of time and money. Keep coming up with these helpful conferences and maybe one day we'll ALL be AUTHORS, rather than merely WRITERS." Dr. Michael B.
