Getting a book published is a totally different beast than writing one. Instead of focusing on your creativity, you’re shifting into business and marketing mode. Because publishing has two completely different paths—Traditional (finding an agent and pitching to publishing houses) and Self-Publishing (doing it yourself)—this 12-week course is split down the middle.
Weeks 1–4 cover the foundational prep every author needs and then learn all you need to pursue your chosen track in weeks 5–12.
