Testimonials

The best investment I ever made as an author.

"Nicholas Kotar’s MasterClass changed everything for me. Before joining, I had studied all the gurus, then self-published my debut novel, and after doing all I knew to do, found myself burnt out, with very little to show for it. I continued writing, but had no vision for the future of my author vocation or business. 
Now, however, through Nicholas’s insights and the engagements in class, I’m well on my way to a thriving creative lifestyle, and I have a concrete plan for the success of my book series. Nicholas’s MasterClass has been the best investment I ever made as an author.”

Catherine G.

It gave me the knowledge to confidently take steps toward establishing a writing business.

“This Masterclass has been instrumental in helping me find myself as an author through the process of publishing my work rather than losing myself to it. 

The practical information presented in each class has given me the knowledge to define success for myself and confidently take steps toward establishing a writing business with a strong sense of agency and integrity."

Who It's For

full control of their intellectual property.

NICHOLAS KOTAR

I'm Nicholas Kotar, author of epic fantasy, science fiction, and crime inspired by Russian fairy tales. I found my own success as a self-published author after realizing how hard it is to break into traditional publishing in a way that gave my family financial freedom. With that, I learned to leverage my books as intellectual property and create my own six-figure author-publisher business in just 5 years.

This October, I'm showing you behind the curtains so you can replicate my exact model, step by step, to find your own financial freedom and maintain your artistic control while getting your books into the hands of readers who love them.
