Write Like A Pro

Become A Professional Writer In The Digital Age

  Enroll in Course

A professional writer publishes frequently, is read widely, and benefits from their work financially.


Write Like A Pro will teach you how to finally establish
a consistent writing practice, reach a wide audience,
and monetize your work in different ways.


Every failed writer has failed for the exact, same reason: they stopped writing.

With this course, that won't happen to you.

This program is perfect for frustrated writers, who really want to make writing their career, but somehow got stuck or even quit along the way.

It is optimized for non-fiction writing, but works for fiction too.

In Write Like A Pro, you will learn:

  • The professional mindset with which some of today's most successful authors managed to continue in the face of rejection, sometimes for decades.

  • How to use methods of behavior change to quickly build momentum and cement a regular writing habit.

  • Why you need a deliberate writing practice, what that looks like, and how you can use it to let your work speak for itself (aka how to market yourself without marketing).

  • What specific writing tactics must go in your toolbox, as you build your own arsenal of writing techniques.

  • How to break into various, new writing platforms, like Quora and Medium, and reach a large audience within weeks, not years (without needing your own website).

  • Why you don't have to write books, and how you can work your way to a full-time income when you monetize your writing in multiple ways.

...and a whole lot more!


If you want writing to be your career,
the only thing that matters is consistency.


When I first started writing, I didn't know what professional writers know: the only thing that matters is being consistent.

That's the "big secret" of writing. You have to find a way to sit down in your chair over, and over, and over again. That's it.

But amateurs don't know that. I didn't know that. And so I wasn't consistent.

I would have three great ideas and write about them three weeks in a row. Then, I'd hit a snag and not publish anything for a month.

It was only when I made a conscious effort at building a real writing habit that failure started to faze me less and less.

But when I think back to all my lowest points, my worst moments, the last thing I would have wanted to hear is "try harder." I honestly believe it would've made me quit.

Because here's another truth about writing:

If you've picked up a pen already, even just once, and loved it, consistency will come naturally once your frustrations wash away.

That's why you have to keep playing around with different things. Eventually, stuff will click into place. But to do that, you must find a practice that lets you enjoy the process itself.

This course is designed to help you develop that practice. It is two parts strategy and one part tactics.

I want to share all of my experiences, my frustrations, my highs and lows with you. All while giving you actionable marketing tactics, timeless writing techniques, and creative ways to financially benefit from your work.

These are the tight ropes and loose ends I wish I had to guide and inspire me way back when.


By the end of this course, you will have:


  • The mindset to succeed in committing yourself to being a full-time writer.

  • A system for writing regularly and publishing on a set schedule.

  • A process to improve your writing, which will ensure you'll get better.

  • A set of marketing tactics that work, without taking away from your craft.

  • An exact plan for creating multiple income streams based on your writing.

  • Dozens of new writing tricks and techniques up your sleeve.

  • Digested 10,000+ hours of experience in this industry in just a few hours of your time.

...and an understanding of everything that separates amateur writers from the pros.


"Having gotten to know Nik over the last few months and learning his process, I can say without hesitation that if you want to learn how to turn your writing into a full time income - there is no one better to learn from.

Plus, the guy is cool."

- Michael Thompson, Top Writer on Medium with over 25,000 followers

"I have been thinking of pursuing a full-time writing career for quite a while, but never felt confident enough about what exact steps I needed to take. The Write Like A Pro course addresses all the main aspects of pursuing a writing career in the digital world: establishing a writing routine, editing and improving your own work, building an audience and making money from your writing.

It also opened my mind to some elements of writing I never paid much attention to, but finally understood their importance - for example, what actually makes a good headline or how to structure articles.

Since I enrolled in the course, I naturally started writing and publishing on a regular basis on Medium - and I am also beginning to see some money coming in. This is thanks to all the information I am learning and wanting to test in practice - but also because of the big doses of healthy motivation I feel each time I listen to Nik!"

- Marta Brzosko, Top Writer in Self-Improvement and featured in Better Humans, a publication with over 1,000,000 readers


Alright, so who are you?
What qualifies you to teach me?


Hi, my name is Nik. I'm a professional writer. After four years of struggling, failing, experimenting, and learning, I now earn a full-time income writing about whatever I want.

Every month, hundreds of thousands of people read my work.

They do so on places like Medium...

...through my book summaries on Four Minute Books...

...and even Quora, where I've amassed over 3 million views:

I started writing in 2014, but it was only once I got a consistent writing schedule going that I managed to build a name for myself.

Now, I make a living doing what I love. Here's how much I made from one of my several income sources, the Medium Partner Program, in just one month:

It's so cliché I almost hate to say it, but I'm not showing you these things to brag. I share these details to give you an idea of what's possible when you put in real blood, sweat, and tears.

I have 61,000 followers on Medium, 60,000 on Quora, and 50,000 email subscribers.

My work has been featured on Medium, Pocket, Lifehacker, Business Insider, CNBC, Thought Catalog, and many more reputable publications.

I've been a Top Writer on Quora for two years in a row.

Now, I want to share everything I've learned along the way with you.

"I've had one Skype call with Nik and maybe 20 email chats and I'm not joking when I say my writing has improved by 50% - seriously!"

- Brian Pennie, recently published his first book with a major publisher in Ireland

"Before starting Nik’s Write Like A Pro course, I couldn’t see a path to take writing from hobby to paid pursuit. Through one of the slack communication channels Nik has created to talk to all students, I’ve found a paid freelance job that is stretching my writing skills and increasing my confidence. Nik’s videos are informative and entertaining. Write Like A Pro has been a solid investment in my growth."

It took me 6 years of 60-hour workweeks, thousands of wasted dollars, and LOTS of failure to learn how to write in a way that truly connects with people and makes money in the process.

For less than $500, Write Like A Pro will upload all this knowledge right into your brain. Learn in just a few hours what took me several YEARS.

You'll even get direct access to me, all the tools and templates you need, and tactics you've never seen before to help you write like a true pro.


"If you want to get serious about writing as a career or side project, I can’t recommend Niklas Göke and his new course highly enough."

- Nick Wignall, Top Writer on Medium with over 35,000 followers

"My biggest problems were consistency and fear to publish. Nik’s no-nonsense approach is exactly what I needed. Nik has a seemingly endless store of sound advice, insightful motivational tools and tried and true methods for a writer at any level. After going through the first module of his course, I felt like a professional writer every time I sat down in front of my keyboard.

I have 2 more modules to go, but my fear to publish is virtually non-existent. I now have an arsenal of tools at my disposal to help organize content, format, find and develop new ideas, and keep me on schedule. I’ve since been publishing regularly, and slowly but surely, getting more traction. Write Like a Pro has been a fun and fulfilling journey and I don’t want it to end!"
