The 3rd Self Publishing Conference May 2015 #Writing

 


SPC


Back for a third year in succession is the Self Publishing Conference in Leicester (United Kingdom). Unfortunately I won’t be there for the 3rd year due to brother’s wedding plans (damn) – but I would strongly recommend that anyone considering Self Publishing attend.


Just jumping into publishing isn’t a great idea without considering avenues, options, and what you should do to make an impact.


The Conference takes place on Saturday 9th May 2015 at the University of Leicester. Once more the event brings together key figures in the self-publishing industry for the benefit of self-publishing authors.

The conference is the perfect day out for authors thinking about, or already involved in, self-publishing their work. Whether you are going it alone or using a self-publishing company, the multiple sessions on a wide variety of topics will be invaluable. The 2015 conference features Keynote Speaker, Bridget Shine from the Independent Publishers Guild (IPG), who will talk about the rise of indie publishing and the day rounds up with an interactive Indie Author Exchange. Other speakers include;


•Dr Alison Baverstock (Kingston University) who will guide authors through key decisions in self-publishing.


•Literary agent Judith Murdoch (Murdoch Literary Agency) on getting an agent.


•Ben Cameron (Cameron Publicity & Marketing) on the key points of book marketing.



They are joined by Sue Magee (TheBookBag.co.uk), Diego Marano (Kobo), Cressida Downing (The Book Analyst), Stuart Evers (NetGalley), Helen Lewis (Literally PR), Ayisha Malik (Cornerstones) and Clive Herbert (Nielsen Book) who between them will guide authors through everything from making sales, getting book reviews to publishing an ebook and editing manuscripts. Registration is £60.00 per person – this includes a delegate’s pack, morning coffee, buffet lunch, afternoon tea, an early-evening drinks reception and a wide choice of sessions  on different aspects of self-publishing.

Offering multiple sessions on self-publishing and giving authors the chance to meet other self-publishers and specialists in the field, this conference is ideal for all budding authors.
