Professional magazine and book editor as well self-published author, Brooke Benoit, will walk writers and other creatives through the steps of converting your work from a manuscript to finished book selling at book retailers. Brooke has been involved in the publication of a variety of book projects, including novels, memoir, planners, self-help journals, cookbooks and anthologies.

This self-publishing workshop will be a thorough primer, covering:
●     Writing – How to act like a professional
●     Editorial Process – Making it painless for all involved
●     Layout and Cover – How to manage the technical details
●     Printing – Where to go, what to expect, how to do it

Writers will leave the workshop knowing exactly what their next step is to be a published author.
