Want to write a book or just learn about the process? In this dynamic 1.5-hour interactive workshop, poet Serena Wills will discuss the foundation of self-publishing and the steps that it takes to go from starting the writing process, completing a book to being self-published. Topics include: accountability, copywriting and how to legally protect your work, the editing process, book layout, how to publish your book, marketing tips and various ways to do book signings. During two poetic breaks, Ms. Wills will talk about her books, what led her to writing them and her unique partnerships. She will even share some of her poetry!
