The Million Dollar Writing series is a collection of non-fiction books about the craft and business of writing, published by WordFire Press. The series features contributions from several working authors, with Kevin J. Anderson as the most frequent contributor. Jody Lynn Nye co-authored Writing as a Team Sport (2018), drawing on her extensive experience collaborating with other writers.
The books cover practical topics that working writers deal with every day. Million Dollar Outlines and Million Dollar Productivity focus on the nuts and bolts of getting words on the page, while Million Dollar Professionalism addresses the business side of a writing career. Other entries tackle specialized subjects like worldbuilding, writing for television, and navigating science fiction conventions as a professional.
Each book in the series stands on its own, so readers can pick up whichever title matches their current needs rather than starting from the beginning. The series ran from 2012 to 2025, with the most recent entry, On Being a Dictator, covering the use of dictation as a writing tool.
