For Serious Writers Only

My upcoming seminar is for serious writers, those who are willing to take their success to another level. You will receive an intensive six hour course on what it takes to sell books in today’s competitive marketplace, as well as how to attract the attention of major publishers without the services of a literary agent. This is not a day listening to guest speakers from a variety of backgrounds tell interesting stories. This is a total emersion in the business of publishing, marketing and selling books.
You will receive information that I have not shared in any of my speaking engagements thus far. You will receive a complete tutorial on how to generate publicity, develop a portfolio of news clippings, and make publishers take notice. You will know at the end of the day exactly what you need to do–step-by-step, to be as successful as you can possibly be. However, the information is only as good as the person receiving it and what they are willing to do with it to be successful.
This is hard work; there is nothing easy about selling books. Everything you will learn will require you to spend a large chunk of time, marketing yourself and your book. This is what it takes to become a successful author. The tools are worthless unless you are willing to put yourself on the line and promote your book. This is why I tell everyone to be perfectly clear on one very important point–this seminar is for serious writers who want the information on what it takes to sell books.
It will be exhausting, but fun, and the information will be worth far more than you can imagine. How many books do you have to sell to make up $85? What you get is 30 years of combined experience in the world of publishing. Hope to see you on September 23rd.
