E-publishing: empowering yourself as a writer
Novelists, Short Story Writers, Poets and Polemicists are all turning to e-book outlets such as Kindle to publish their work.
Beyond the Page, a Room to Write week-end workshop will focus on skills and approaches which will enable you to publish your work on Amazon Kindle.
This weekend we aim to remove the mystique surrounding this process and help you to prepare your work for Kindle.
In the process you will acquire skills in:
- Publication level copy editing
- Layout and formatting your work for Kindle and for Amazon Createspace (Paperback)
- Cover design
- Quality control
- Promotion and marketing through Twitter and Blogging
The process is the same whether you are publishing a novel, a collection of short stories, a collection of poems or a factual or informative book or pamphlet.
The Kindle and Createspace processes cost you nothing apart from the effort to develop these skills. All you have to do as a writer is to join our workshop to acquire and develop these skills and get your work OUT THERE into the wide world.
