Wondrium has a lot of collections, but these four are the big ones:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Wondrium Originals: <\/strong>A collection of exclusive original content made just for Wondrium, like the travel show Travels with Darcy and the fiction writing course How to Write Best-selling Fiction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The Great Courses:<\/strong> Wondrium's largest collection, with dozens of in-depth programs on topics like Norse Mythology, The History and Archaeology of the Bible, and more.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Kino Lorber:<\/strong> Classic films and documentaries like Nosferatu and Joseph Campbell and the Power of Myth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Craftsy: <\/strong>Creative skills like drawing, woodworking, and metalsmithing. Great for learning hobbies.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, you will also occasionally see content from other sources, those tend to come and go, so I won\u2019t list them all here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-best-wondrium-courses-for-writers\">The Best Wondrium Courses for Writers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Alright, now we get to the fun part of the review, the part where I outline the best courses specifically for writers (as this is the main audience for Kindlepreneur).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before I get into that, I want to reiterate that while Wondrium has some excellent courses just for writers, there are a lot of courses that are tangentially related to a variety of genres that are excellent for research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, when I was about to start writing my first YA Arthurian Fantasy, I watched a course on the Arthurian Legends. And it was fantastic!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The courses are incredibly thorough and give you a solid overview of a topic. It leaves you able to talk conversationally on just about any subject you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So with that in mind, I highly recommend the history, science, psychology, and many other courses there. They will give you a lot of background information that you might want as an author, without requiring you to get a PhD in the subject.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are my favorite courses that are more <em>specifically<\/em> relevant for authors:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-write-best-selling-fiction\">How to Write Best Selling Fiction<\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"416\" height=\"234\" src=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/How-to-Write-Bestselling-Fiction-Course.jpg\" alt=\"How to Write Bestselling Fiction Course\" class=\"wp-image-36551\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/How-to-Write-Bestselling-Fiction-Course.jpg 416w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/How-to-Write-Bestselling-Fiction-Course-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/How-to-Write-Bestselling-Fiction-Course-24x14.jpg 24w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/How-to-Write-Bestselling-Fiction-Course-36x20.jpg 36w, https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/How-to-Write-Bestselling-Fiction-Course-48x27.jpg 48w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 416px) 100vw, 416px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>Overview: <\/strong>This course reveals all the secrets that best-selling fiction writers have employed for years, from crafting compelling characters to structuring a page-turning plot.

However, it does have some stiff competition in the space. Here's how Wondrium stacks up against some of the other top players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-masterclass\">Masterclass<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/click\/masterclass\">Masterclass<\/a> is perhaps the most direct competitor to Wondrium in terms of being a subscription platform with a wide range of topics covered. Masterclass offers courses taught by celebrities and industry leaders on subjects ranging from cooking to filmmaking to sports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The biggest advantage of Masterclass is that you're learning directly from the absolute best &#8211; people like Neil Gaiman, Levar Burton, or James Patterson. They've reached the pinnacle of their field, so who better to learn from?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, I've found the format of Masterclass courses to be more limited compared to Wondrium. Most Masterclass courses are between 5-10 video lessons averaging 15-20 minutes each. They are well-produced and insightful, but not nearly as comprehensive as a typical 12-60+ lecture Wondrium course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wondrium goes much more in-depth, spending hours upon hours exploring a topic from all angles. So if you're looking for a true immersion in a subject, Wondrium has the edge. That said, Masterclass is unrivaled for learning directly from the masters of a craft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-skillshare\">Skillshare<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/masterclass-vs-skillshare\/\">Skillshare <\/a>is an online learning community focused primarily on creative skills rather than academic topics. You'll find courses on illustration, photography, video production, design, marketing, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The platform is oriented towards very specific, practical skills rather than broader knowledge. So you might take a course on <a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/social-media-for-writers\/\">social media<\/a> strategy or watercolor painting basics. This can be great if you want to pick up tactical abilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, Wondrium offers a much wider range of subject matter, including topics like history, science, literature, philosophy and more. While Wondrium has some practical skills courses, its strength is building a foundation of knowledge in a subject rather than just teaching isolated skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, Skillshare is better for targeted creative skills training, while Wondrium provides more well-rounded learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-udemy\">Udemy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/best-udemy-courses-for-self-publishing-authors\/\">Udemy<\/a> is another large online course marketplace, with offerings in topics like design, marketing, programming, and more. Like Skillshare, it focuses primarily on teaching practical job skills and software proficiencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Courses are paid for individually, so you buy only what you want \u00e0 la carte rather than paying a subscription. This can be nice if you just need to pick up one or two specific skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, this format encourages very niche courses sometimes only an hour or two long. Again, Wondrium takes a much more comprehensive approach in exploring subjects through lengthy, structured courses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So Udemy is better for quickly adding a new capability, while Wondrium builds deeper knowledge foundations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-coursera\">Coursera<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Coursera partners with major universities to offer online versions of real college courses and degrees. You'll find courses from schools like Stanford, University of Michigan, and Duke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The courses span topics like technology, business, and health, offering university-level curriculum to anyone online. And a huge benefit is that most Coursera courses are available for free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, Coursera courses tend to be lighter versions of true university classes, often just 6-8 hours of content in total. Wondrium courses regularly span 24+ hours of lectures diving deep into a topic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So Coursera serves as a nice taste of higher education, but Wondrium goes far beyond surface level into mastery of subjects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-linkedin-learning\">LinkedIn Learning<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>LinkedIn Learning (previously Lynda) offers courses mainly focused on creative business skills like design, marketing, data analysis, and more. The platform is great for picking up abilities that translate to real-world jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The course quality is generally very good, on par with Wondrium. And the business slant provides very career-applicable education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the scope of LinkedIn Learning content is narrower, prioritizing marketable skills over exploration of academic disciplines like history or literature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So LinkedIn Learning can give your resume a boost, while Wondrium simply makes you a well-rounded lifelong learner.<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n<section class=\"standard-cta testimonial\" id=\"cta-block_60a2afd218233\">\r\n    <div class=\"cta-inner row\">\r\n                    <div class=\"cta-media col-md-4\">\r\n                                    <div class=\"cta-media-inner\">\r\n                    \r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/click\/rocket-in-content\" alt=\"\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">                        \r\n                                                    <i class=\"fa fa-play\"><\/i>\r\n                        \r\n                                                    <div class=\"img-overlay\"><\/div>\r\n                        \r\n                        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/PR_Competition-Feature-e1621274721682.png\" alt=\"Publisher Rocket Amazon Dashboard\" height=\"232\" width=\"400\">\r\n                        \r\n                        <\/a>                    <\/div>\r\n                            <\/div>\r\n        \r\n        <div class=\"cta-body col-md-8\" style=\"text-align:center;\">  \r\n                            <a class=\"cta-heading\" href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/click\/rocket-in-content\" alt=\"\">\r\n                            <h3>Book Marketing Made Simple<\/h3>\r\n                            <\/a>\r\n                        \r\n            <p>Over 47,000+ authors, NYT bestsellers, and publishing companies use Publisher Rocket to gain key insight to the market.\u00a0<b>Help your book now<\/b><\/p>\n                    <\/div>\r\n\r\n            <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\r\n\r\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-pros-about-wondrium\">Pros About Wondrium<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>By now you have an idea of what I like about Wondrium. I really like it. A lot. But here are some of the specifics that particularly draw me to the platform:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Extensive catalog of courses: <\/strong>With over 10,000 hours of content and growing, Wondrium has a course on practically any topic you could want to learn about.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Very nice for life-long learners: <\/strong>The wide range makes it easy to always find new subjects to explore as your interests evolve and change over time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Great for a well-rounded education on any topic:<\/strong> The courses truly immerse you in a subject with comprehensive, structured lessons over hours of content. This is especially useful for writers who need a broad overview of a variety of subjects besides writing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>High production value: <\/strong>The courses are professionally filmed in studios with engaging instructors and visual elements like slides and demos.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Instructors from accredited institutions:<\/strong> Instructors are experts from top universities like Stanford, giving credibility.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-cons-about-wondrium\">Cons About Wondrium<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the fact that I love Wondrium, there are a few things I would improve if I could. Including the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Mildly expensive: <\/strong>While affordable compared to alternatives, the subscription fee can add up, though this isn\u2019t really that much of an issue if you get the annual option, which comes out to just $12.50\/month, which is cheaper than Netflix.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Some issues with the app: <\/strong>I\u2019ve had a few issues with some of the apps, including the occasional crash. And certain platforms like Roku don't allow speeding up video, making courses slower to get through.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Not good for niche skills: <\/strong>The focus is more on conceptual knowledge rather than tactical abilities and techniques. Some of the alternative platforms mentioned above are a bit better for hyper-niched skills in my opinion.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-verdict-is-wondrium-worth-it\">Verdict: Is Wondrium Worth It?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>100% Yes, I can confirm that Wondrium is worth it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When Dave was just starting out with Kindlepreneur, he wrote a <a href=\"https:\/\/kindlepreneur.com\/masterwriter-review\/\">great review of Masterclass<\/a>, and don\u2019t get me wrong, I love Masterclass as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But if I personally had to choose between the two (speaking for myself here, and not for Dave Chesson or Kindlepreneur as a whole), I would choose Wondrium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because writers need to know a lot more than just how to write. We need to know about history, geography, psychology, philosophy, science, and a lot more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And in my opinion, Wondrium is the #1 place to do that, so it remains my personal recommendation for a good learning platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you love to learn, you will love Wondrium.
