Write, Publish & Sell Your E-book

E-books are easier to produce and are more profitable than print
books. Authors are able to publish their work, make it visible to
a worldwide audience, and attract the attention of an agent or
traditional publisher. Learn about royalty rates, costs, formats,
promotion, sales, and how to convert your manuscript into an
ebook. Class fee: $29.

every stage of the self-publishing process: creation, publication,
promoting/marketing and sales — using time-honored, traditional,
and cutting-edge strategies. Class fee: $29.
