Self Publishing Speaking Topics and Workshops
Panelist at Broadleaf Writers Association Self Publishing 101 Seminar
You know the time is now, but aren’t sure how!
- Have you been saying you’re writing a book or going to write a book? You’ll finish it…some day…
- You’ll be a published author on your terms…some day…
- Do you have a message but struggle to connect with your ideal audience?
- Are you tired of watching time pass without the progress you know is possible?
- You see others publishing their books and keep asking yourself, “why not me?”
Self Publishing 101
Offers an overview of the self publishing process, what you need to do, be prepared for and the key steps to take before publishing your book.
Self Publishing 201
Very hands on workshop in which we walk through the self publishing of your eBook on Amazon. Your book should be formatted, edited, and have a cover, and draft or final blurb/book description.
Both workshops are hands on and allot time for questions. You’ll get the benefit of my experiences (the good and the not so good). If you are ready to self publish your book and become an independent author these workshops will help you do it successfully.
If you’d like to find out about these events be sure you’re subscribed to my newsletter or follow me on social media.
Self Publishing 201+ Paperback
In this add-on segment we’ll work through uploading your paperback book to Amazon through KDP. You’ll need your paperback formatted version of your book as well as your cover design.
Self Publishing 301 (Beyond the ‘Zon)
You’ve got your eBook on Amazon, but want to know how to sell on other platforms without spending days (or weeks) figuring it out. We walk through uploading to Draft2Digital, setting up Google Play, and even discuss selling direct. If you are enrolled in KDP you will not be able to take advantage of this workshop fully until your enrollment period ends.
