CLASS: "Rock Star Publicity" with Marika Flatt and Elena Meredith

Presented by Writers' League of Texas at St. Edwards University

Ready to promote your book but not comfortable with pitching it–and yourself–as an author? This class will help!

Want to learn practical strategies for modern book publicity?

Books don’t sell themselves. It takes a marketing-savvy author to execute a successful book campaign. This class will introduce promotional strategies for the assertive author and promotional alternatives for those who don’t like being in the limelight. Promotion is not a one-time event. It must be ongoing for as long as you want your book to sell.

In this class, learn the state of publicity in 2017 and heading into 2018, how to match your strengths with the right types of media, how to craft the perfect pitch, and talking points that make it easy for the media to discuss your book. In addition, participants will begin developing a \”press pack\” for their books.
