Description

At the end of 2013, the crew behind the top-rated Self Publishing Podcast released their book Write. Publish. Repeat. WPR went on to become a #1 bestseller, hailed as an addition to the "must have" book list for writers. This 30-part video series, in which the three authors (Johnny, Sean, and Dave) expound on all of WPR's key pointsa year later, is the next step for forward-thinking, smart indie publishers.

Write. Publish. Repeat. Conversations is the video companion to Write. Publish. Repeat. We not only go into more depth on the book's content as it applies to our day-to-day business, but the series also updates the book with all we've learned after another year publishing at Sterling & Stone, our cutting-edge company that runs six imprints across the publishing spectrum.

Students of this course will learn how to take take their art and make a viable business from it. The e-book age is a golden time for writers ... and Write. Publish. Repeat. shows you how to take advantage of it, and profit from your creativity.

Who Should Attend!

  • This is for writers who are willing to work hard to produce and sell quality books
  • This is for writers willing to think of writing as a business as well as an art
  • This is for writers who love to write, rather than those who see writing as some sort of a way to get rich quickly
  • This is NOT for anyone seeking a "get rich quick" scheme or anyone who believes an "ebook gold rush" mentality
  • This is NOT for hobbyists (who don't really care about selling their work) or pure artists who feel that "adding business to art" somehow sullies it (HINT: it most certainly does not)
  • This is NOT for lazy people, people who complain, or people who make excuses. Basically, it's not for any writer unwilling to take responsibility for her own success
