Creative Development Workshop: Self-Publishing 201
Workshop participants have asked for a follow up to 101 so I created Self-Publishing 201: Next Steps. Here we will pick up where we left off in the last workshop and do a deeper dive and look at what is next after you self publish that first book. We will review more marketing tips, ways to reach out to people, investing in a website, a deeper look into ways to self-publish if you want to change the first way you did it and what some of the best companies are offering in regards to print and price, building your audience, how to use your books as tools and resources for other, partnering with organizations and more. The work is never done once you publish a book, the goal is to now build momentum on the first book and keep it going.
This workshop are for participants who have taken Self-Publishing 101 (or have taken other classes and want to learn more) and ready to take that deep dive and learn more!
Date & Time: Thursday, Jan 27 7PM EST
Offered Via Zoom (Register To Receive The Link)
Tickets are PAY-WHAT-YOU-WISH ($5, $10 or $15)
HERE'S WHAT FOLKS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THIS WORKSHOP:
"I learned so much from Serena about the in's and outs of self-publishing. I appreciated her transparency about her journey and all of the information that she presented!"
"I thought that I was taking too long on writing my book, let alone publishing it and Serena taught me that writing and self-publishing is not a race, but a marathon. The goal is to finish but the timeline is up to me. I felt so much better and now I am buckling down and writing again and I know I will be published. Thank you!"
“I found Serena Wills did a great job of compressing so much useful information, along with great insights, in a relatively short amount of time. She was great at answering the viewers different types of questions, which is not always the case in webinars.“
