Seminar highlights

In Part I of this seminar we will discuss the elements of getting started in the writing process, writing, making time to write, editing, about the publishing industry, preparing your book to go to press and touch on self-publishing. Each author will share their publishing experience, whether they are self-published and why they choose that route, with a mainstream publisher and how they like/dislike the experience and give advice on what to avoid in self-publishing.
