A free guide for nonfiction authors who feel buried under research

From Chaos to Clarity: The 5-Step Process to Turn Research into a Story

Does This Sound Familiar?

  • You’ve collected mountains of notes, articles, and quotes but have no idea how to shape them into a story.

  • Every fact feels important, and cutting anything feels impossible.

  • You start writing, but your draft comes out dull, academic, or disorganized.

  • You’re afraid of losing momentum because you can’t see the bigger picture.

You’re not alone. Many nonfiction writers—whether academics, memoirists, family historians, or business authors—struggle with research overwhelm. The good news? There’s a way forward.

Turn Your Research Into a Story Readers Actually Want to Read

From Chaos to Clarity is a free, step-by-step guide that shows you how to:

  • Gather and organize your research without spiraling

  • Sort your material into themes instead of drowning in details

  • Decide what serves your reader—and cut the rest

  • Build a clear structure

  • Move forward with confidence instead of second-guessing yourself

This is not just another checklist—it’s a repeatable process you can use chapter by chapter, draft after draft, to turn information into a compelling narrative. It also includes two worksheets!
