Get Published and Become a Bestseller
Getting published today is hard.
Writing is hard enough. But now, even if you publish with a major publisher, you're still expected to market your books, too.
It's exhausting to even think about.
On top of that, there are so many books being published that it's easy for your writing to get lost in the noise.
How do you get publishers to take notice?
How do you get people to actually read your book when it comes out?
Is it really possible to make it as a writer today?
![](https://thewritepractice.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/Joe-Bunting-brick-headshot.jpg)
I know how hard it is to make it because I've been there.
My name is Joe Bunting, and I'm a bestselling author.
But it took years of struggle to get there.
My writing was rejected from dozens of publishers.
I struggled to get anyone to read my writing, even my mom.
I worried I didn't have what it takes to make it as a writer.
I started to think, NO, I didn't have what it takes.
Then something happened:
I learned the process to become a bestselling author.
After years of struggling, I learned how to start to gather an audience of readers.
Then I published my first book in 2012 … and it took off.
Soon I was a #1 Amazon bestseller. My book was on the list next to Ray Bradbury, Michael Lewis, and Brené Brown.
And that's not all. In 2019, I published my memoir Crowdsourcing Paris and it instantly became a #1 New Release on Amazon.
And then in 2020, a book I co-wrote hit the Wall Street Journal bestsellers list.
How did I do it? It all came from knowing the right process. Not an Amazon trick or a social media tactic, but a timeless, proven process to build a career as a writer.
Now I'm teaching the process that turned me into a bestselling author.

What Our Students Are Saying
A proven track record of writers succeeding.
“I used to dream of being the next J. K. Rowling. Reality check—the fiction business isn’t magical; it’s hard work. Foundations of Publishing makes it easier. In addition to the rich course material, I had the support of a network of my fellow students, or the Cartel, and my strongest supporter was founder Joe Bunting.”
“Foundations of Publishing helped me build upon what I had already started with the publication of my memoir. I was able to access the course material and forum activities in my own time. I also feel I have made enough meaningful connections with classmates to hop on board at any time. I am very happy I took the plunge when reason would have cautioned me to not take on one more thing.”
