PUBLISHING and MARKETING - 4 x 3 hour workshops
Tutor Elaine Ouston

No matter what you have written, 200,000 word novel or a picture book, when most writers type ‘the end’ a feeling of satisfaction washes over them. They feel like they have completed a long and exciting journey, and so they should.

But what most writers don’t realise is that if they want their book to be chosen by a publishing house or to sell well as a self-published book, a whole new journey now begins, and unlike their writing journey this is one they have little control over.

These 4 x 3 hour workshops will cover your publishing options, how to write an effective synopsis and query letter, how to make your submission stand out, and marketing.   

​Even if you are published by a major publishing house, you will still need to do some marketing if you want to be a best seller. In the marketing course, we will cover the steps needed to make that marketing effective.
