MAYA GOLDEN BETHANY: Stand Out in the Stacks: Book Marketing on a Budget

It’s estimated that 4 million books are released annually. Almost a million of those are traditionally published and almost two million are self-published. That’s a pretty big stack! So how do you stand out and make a splash in such a big literary sea? Join Maya as she provides tips for social media marketing, engagement and networking with other authors to help your publication receive the attention it deserves.

RENEÈ LA VINESS:  Editing: Less Equals More

Word counts rule our writing world. It helps to know how to cut the excess and strengthen your story at the same time.

Whether your script takes place on a distant planet or in your old hometown, there is an unknown, often unrecognized character in every scene.

 

JODI THOMPSON: Terrible Advice: TACKLED

Terrible Advice is never in short supply, especially in the publishing world. I will choose 10-15 questions/concerns submitted by attendees to tackle, breaking down each topic to parse the good from the bad. The purpose of this session is to guide people through the madness—sanity and pocketbook intact.
