Afternoon Workshop: Sustainable Marketing for Indie Authors
Are you overwhelmed by conflicting advice about how to market and promote your books? Do you worry that you’re not doing the right things, or that you’re missing some magic formula? Or, do you spend so much time chasing book promotions and sales that there’s no time left to write the next book?
In this interactive workshop, we’ll look at what a sustainable book marketing strategy looks like for your specific situation. The workshop will combine insight into the indie publishing industry with a dash of cognitive science to help you identify a book marketing path that makes sense for you. You’ll leave with strategies and inspiration to build your long-term success as an author.

From Idea to Publication: Crafting Your Nonfiction Book Plan
Want to demonstrate your expertise, establish thought leadership or share your thoughts with the world? Writing a book is one of the best ways to achieve these goals.
If you’d like to write a book but don’t know how to make it happen, this workshop is for you. We’ll talk through the entire process, from the idea to publication, including:
- Finding and refining your book topic
- Understanding your publication options: Traditional publishing, self-publishing, and the things in between
- Creating your writing roadmap
- Book marketing, or how life as an author begins before publication
You’ll leave with everything you need to create your personal writing and publishing plan, including planning worksheets and checklists. You’ll also get a copy of The Writer’s Process, filled with advice to help you through the writing process itself.
Format: This is a half-day (four hour) workshop, with interactive discussions and exercises to clarify your strategy.
