The Hurricane Method Review: What's Inside Lindsay Lake's Novel-Writing Program

This post contains affiliate links. I may earn a commission if you buy through my link, at no extra cost to you.

Buy The Hurricane Method and the download page gives you one e-book, three bonus reports and fifteen audio files that run from an introduction through to chapter fourteen.

Before you pay for any of it, it's worth knowing about a short warning Lindsay Lake puts on her own home page.

It tells you a lot about who this program is really for.

Lindsay Lake, the romance author behind the program

Lindsay Lake describes herself as an Amazon.com top selling author.

Her best-known book, she says, is Private Seduction, part of her romantic and spicy Hideaway of Desires series.

She also says she has written over 50 other bestsellers under different pen names as a contract writer, and that she works as a writing coach.

Her story starts before any of that: she says she was working a job she hated and writing on the side when her husband left, and suddenly she was supporting her three children alone.

After months of getting by, she set out to learn what successful authors do and pieced together her own method.

She says she wrote her first novel in 14 days, and that ten weeks after she finished it, the novel "flew up the top seller charts".

She adds that the time it takes comes down to your goals and what kind of book you are writing.

She says she has since taught the method to hundreds of others.

The named techniques inside, in Lindsay's own words

Here is each named part of the program as the sales letter describes it:

- Clarity Momentum Formula: she says it "destroys writers block once and for all".
- Fruition Tree: a technique "to quickly whip up a kick-ass novel outline".
- Addiction Seed: for a story "that switches on every emotional hot button in a reader's mind".
- Character Design Pyramid: for characters so memorable they leave "an unforgettable lasting imprint" on a reader's mind.
- Seesaw Dialog Technique: shows you how to relate emotions, story and conflict through the dialogue you give each character.
- Page Popper Technique: brings your words to life "from the very first line".
- Tidal Wave Technique: for when you hit a wall in your story and need ideas to move it forward.
- Universal Captivation Secret: makes it easy to write across all genres and appeal to any audience.
- Fiction Frame Technique: what she calls the difference between a novel falling flat and a novel people talk about long after they read the last page.
- Easy Refining Template: makes the tough job of editing "as close to done for you as possible".
- Spider Method: "spins a web of authenticity to your writing and helps you find your unique voice".
- Twisted Climax Technique: she says a fantasy writer called Jackson used it to find, within three days, the ending he had struggled with for over two years.
- Publishing Power Pack: what she calls "a closely guarded secret" and critical to your overall success as a novelist.
- Blurb Generator: for what you write on the back of your book, so your novel stands out on the shelf.
- Celebrity Guest Authors: award-winning author friends of hers who share their knowledge of sci fi, crime and fantasy writing.

She says this isn't even half of what's inside.

The four bonuses that come with it

Lindsay's own warning about writing a novel fast

The warning sits right under the home page headline, which offers a method for writing and publishing a novel "in as little as 14 days".

Here is what Lindsay writes there:

"Warning: This method is controversial. Many writers will disagree with me that writing can be fast. It will depend what your goals are."

She goes on to say that a Harry Potter novel takes a lot longer to write than a romance, and that she writes her romances in under 14 days.

I'm glad she says it so openly.

It tells you the 14 days is her pace for romance and her goals, and that a big, complex novel will take longer whatever method you use.

Who will get the most from it

- people who have always wanted to write a novel and never got past the first few pages
- romance readers who'd love to write one, plus fans of sci fi, crime and fantasy, which her guest authors cover
- anyone sitting on a half-finished draft, because several parts deal with getting unstuck, finding an ending and editing
- people curious about publishing on Kindle, thanks to the Kindle report, the Publishing Power Pack and the Blurb Generator

Who should skip it

If you want a slow, careful literary-fiction course where you spend a month on one chapter, this isn't built for you.

Lindsay's whole approach is about writing fast, and she says herself that many writers disagree with that.

It also won't suit someone who wants a live teacher.

The package is a download of PDFs and audio, with no classes or personal feedback on your pages.

Is $47 fair for what's in the package?

For one payment of $47 you get the program as an e-book and as audio, plus three bonus reports.

The 60-day guarantee also gives you time to try the techniques on your own story before you decide to keep it.

Lindsay Lake's full sales letter (https://hop.clickbank.net/?affiliate=YOURIDHERE&vendor=hurricanem&tid=YOURTRACKINGHERE&type=written) lists everything in the package and is the best place to judge whether it suits the novel you want to write.
