In an industry with so many paths to getting your book into readers' hands, is traditional publishing the right avenue for you?
Self-publishing has a longstanding and unwarranted stigma in the publishing industry, despite numerous success stories and many traditionally published authors turning to self-publishing in the modern market. Perhaps you are tired of the hit-or-miss nature of querying. Or being told to add elements to your story to 'make it more marketable.'
Many traditionally published books are released with little to no fanfare, relying on an author's savvy marketing skills to get the word out—skills an author can foster and apply to promoting books on their own.
Self-publishing is a viable, worthy option, one that comes with a lot of work but can be highly rewarding in a personal, creative, and business sense.
Join us for an exploration into the pathway of self-publishing, including:
- Building your brand
- Creating your team - beta-readers, editors, proofreaders, cover designers, and more
- Wearing both the author and businessman hats
- How to evangelize your books, and take your platform to the next level through engagement
Panelists: Anna Albo, Rodney V. Smith, Kristin Jacques, Wendy Million
