A Couple Free Online Publishing Workshops This Week
As mentioned in my earlier post we’re now holding live, online workshops to help authors understand the ins and outs of publishing and marketing. All the classes for March haven’t been entered yet, but you can find the latest listings here. This week in particular we have a couple free classes that you might find helpful–
- Wednesday, March 3, 2pm EST Ebook Formatting and Publishing (PS 204)
We’re just launching this class this week, so today’s session is a freebie to get participant feedback (it will normally list for $74.95). I know it’s last minute, but feel free to join in! Class size is limited to 10 participants. If you do catch this notice too late just let me know and I’ll get you a coupon to take the next one for free.
- Wednesday, March 3, 7pm EST Manuscript Formatting Basics
This class is a more in-depth review & follow-up from last week’s Online Publishing Meetup session in which Anthony Policastro walked us through successful manuscript formatting. Class size will be limited to 20 people so that everyone can fully participate.
Again, these workshops are intended to help you, today’s author, understand the opportunities and follow the processes that can enable you to optimize your success–whether you’re finishing your manuscript, publishing an ebook, or figuring out how to best market your book online. You’ll notice that we have both free and fee-based classes on pre-publishing and marketing research, publishing planning, publishing through Createspace & Lulu, “author-centric” social networking, and Facebook optimization for authors. Hopefully there’s a little something that everyone can find helpful.
I worked with many authors at Lulu that realized their publishing dreams, so I know that you can too. We’ll help you with the knowledge and understanding, and you can supply the time and effort to building your success. Deal?
Thanks, and till next time–keep publishing!

Hi! my name is Henry Hutton, and I'd like to welcome you to my new website--PublishandSell.com. I'm one of the founding members of Lulu.com--the world's leading online publishing site, and served as their Online Community Director, Director of Operations and Customer Service, and Product Manager for their Lulu Studio online book-building tool. During my time at Lulu I helped hundreds of authors navigate the often confusing world of self-publishing. Not surprisingly, when we started Lulu in 2003 people referred to our free online publishing as a scam.
