Share this event
You have a story to tell. The question is... how do you get it into the hands of readers?
Whether you're just beginning to write, halfway through your manuscript, or have a completed book gathering dust in a drawer, this workshop will give you the knowledge, confidence, and clarity to navigate the self-publishing journey successfully.
Join former journalist, marketing specialist and publishing consultant with Tellwell Publishing, Alexandra Carruthers for an engaging and informative session that demystifies the publishing process and equips you with the tools to avoid costly mistakes, save valuable time, and make informed decisions every step of the way.
Together, we'll walk through each milestone of the self-publishing journey, including:
- Developing and finishing your manuscript
- Why professional editing matters (and where DIY can work and where it can hurt your book)
- Cover design, formatting, and creating a polished, professional product
- Publishing platforms and distribution
- Marketing fundamentals and preparing your book for launch
- The most common pitfalls first-time authors encounter and how to avoid them
We'll also explore the different paths available to today's authors, including the pros and cons of publishing independently versus partnering with a professional publishing company. You'll learn how Tellwell supports authors while allowing them to maintain creative control and ownership of their work.
Whether your dream is to publish a memoir, business book, novel, children's book, or passion project, this workshop is designed to help you move from uncertainty to action.
You'll leave with:
- A clear understanding of the self-publishing process
- Practical next steps tailored to your stage of writing
- Insider tips from industry professionals
- Greater confidence to move your book forward
Your story deserves more than a hard drive or a desk drawer.
If you've ever dreamed of becoming a published author, this is the workshop that will help you take the next step.
