The many tasks involved in planning, writing, publishing and marketing a book can make even a veteran author and publisher feel overwhelmed.
 
And if you're self-publishing, even more so!
But what if you had a guide to show you not just the myriad of tasks you need to tick off, but also the optimal timeline to do so?

Join Anna Featherstone, author of Look - It's Your Book! and founder of Bold Authors, for this highly useful course, full of actionable information and important tips.

Anna will demystify all the little and large steps that you need to take - and when - to bring your book to market successfully.

In this presentation, you will:

  • learn how to use the idea of 'buckets' to organise different tasks
  • gain an understanding of the important (little and large!) tasks you'll need to tick off before launch in the areas of writing, editing, design, publishing, marketing and distribution.
  • discover the ideal timeline to complete tasks, ranging from 12+ months before launch right through until launch day and beyond. 

This course is a major extension of the presentations Anna Featherstone has presented for The Australian Society of Authors, The Small Press Network's Independent Publishing Conference and other writing groups. It contains added material, checklists and worksheets.

This course is so new I don't have any testimonials yet :) , but if I'd have had access to these publishing timeline checklists and information when I was publishing my books, I would have made it to book launch day a whole lot calmer, more organised, having made less costly mistakes and with greater marketing and collaboration opportunities for my books.

As an author, it's worth it.

No more guessing about what to do when.
