If you’re new to my channel… hey there!

My name is Nicolas Cole and I’ve been writing online since 2007.

Since then, I’ve generated over a billion views on my writing, written 10+ books, and built multiple 7+ figure writing-related businesses, including two of the largest writing programs on the Internet: Ship 30 for 30 & Premium Ghostwriting Academy.

I have made millions of dollars writing online, so I fundamentally reject this narrative (pun intended) “nobody makes a living as a writer.”

Yes, you absolutely can make a living as a writer. In fact, you can make more than just a living. You can make tons of money as a writer… IF… you’re a digital writer, and embrace learning the new skills required to thrive in a digital world.

Which is why I started this YouTube channel.

Consider me your Digital Writing Mentor!

On this channel I talk about:

- Digital Writing
- Ghostwriting
- Writing With AI
- Self-Publishing
- Writing Services & Business Models

So if you have any questions, drop me a comment on any video and I’ll answer them in a future video!

Keep writing,

Cole
