In Your Own Hands THIS WORKSHOP WAS HELD IN FEBRUARY 2008
Like most fairy tales, the happy ending that resulted in a major publishing coup for author Elle Newmark isn’t the point of the story. After being rejected numerous times over several years for a novel she believed in, Elle decided to publish her book through iUniverse, knowing it would be up to her to do all the marketing and promotion to generate visibility and create buzz. Did she ever! Over the course of several months, the investment of some cash, a crash course in internet publishing and marketing, and a lot of hard work, Elle created a “virtual book launch party” to promote her novel, Bones of the Dead. The result: a literary agent and a two-book, seven-figure offer from a major publisher. In this three-hour workshop, Elle will share the secrets of her amazing success. You’ll find out why she chose to self-publish, what she learned about using the internet, how she created her website and pulled off her virtual launch party.
