Workshop Description:
The publishing industry today looks much different than it did a decade ago. In that time, self-publishing has outgrown its longstanding ‘vanity’ stigma and become a viable publishing option for many writers.
Whether you’re a seasoned writer seeking new adventures or an aspiring author taking your first steps into the world of self publishing, this webinar promises to equip you with a brief understanding of the industry’s evolution, debunk common myths surrounding self-publishing, shed light on the importance of choosing a publishing partner, and look at what it’s like to work with a service provider.
Giveaway: We’ll be giving one attendee a Free Manuscript Evaluation! Opt-in to Win will be done via QR Code/link provided during the presentation.
