Writing a nonfiction book is a great way to establish expertise on a subject or market yourself and your business. Join us to learn how to capture your thoughts, ideas, and experiences, put them into words, and then transform them into a well-written, well-edited, and well-designed book. We’ll take you step by step through the writing and self-publishing process, including

• research and preparation

• writing the manuscript

• working with editors and designers

• printing and distribution

• marketing

You’ll leave with an understanding of the steps needed to transform a rough idea or incomplete manuscript into a finished book your readers will enjoy.
