Workshops: 1. Publishing 101. 2. Top 20 Ways to Market Your Book.
Polly Letofsky wrote her book about walking around the world, “3mph: The Adventures of One Woman’s Walk Around the World.” After five years of walking and six years writing the book about it, she handed her manuscript off to a crooked publisher. That launched her into starting a new publishing model that protects authors.
In 2012 she started My Word Publishing, a publishing model that interrupted the publishing world by helping authors professionally self-publish their books while maintaining 100% of all their rights. My Word Publishing has now grown into a publishing library of over 1,100 books and four publishing consultants.
In September of 2022 they were submitted to the US Congressional Record for their new publishing model that helps protect authors.

We’ll also cover the steps to take and costs to expect.
“Top 20 Ways to Market Your Book.” Marketing can run from $0 to $tratosphere, and everyone has a different market, budget, goals, and time. In this class, we’ll talk about twenty ways to market your book that are either free or low cost. It comes with loads of handouts to make an overwhelming topic a little more fun.
