Workshops

Do you want to write a book, but are unsure of how to get your work published? Have you written a manuscript, but keep encountering roadblocks and “no’s” when sending it out to publishing companies? Are you trying to decide if publishing your book on your own is right for you, and want someone to give you the real deal of what publishing and marketing a book costs? These workshops are for you!

In these information-packed sessions, you’ll learn from author and publisher, Kathryn Cloward, who’ll share the comprehensive knowledge she gained while successfully creating, writing, and publishing her award-winning “Kathryn the Grape” books, and publishing novels written by other authors through her publishing company, Kandon Publishing.

Kathryn’s goal is to help you save time and money on your publishing journey. She’s walked in your shoes, and wants to spare you from making the mistakes she did—including one that cost her more than $2,500. She’s excited about sharing her expertise and providing you with candid facts—including a few pieces of advice that have had tremendous impact on the success of her books and her brand!

The publishing terrain can be rugged and the landscape of publishing has shifted tremendously in the past few years. To successfully navigate it, knowledge is power and Kathryn has it! She’ll help you to stop thinking like an author, and start thinking like a publisher. Why is that important? Because publishing is a business!

Regardless of what publishing route you decide to take—commercial publishing, independent publishing, or self-publishing—it’s imperative to understand the business you’re entering. Too often, authors are so emotionally tied to their work that they fail to investigate and understand the business and legal side of the publishing industry, and suffer the consequences as a result.
