Building Your Author Roadmap

Many writers can clearly articulate their career goals (published author, movie deal, adoring fans!), but when it comes time to explain *how* they’ll achieve these goals, the picture becomes a little less clear. Like any profession, the most successful authors are the ones with a clear vision and a roadmap to back it up. Today’s writers are fighting an uphill battle and the number of competencies we’re expected to master is overwhelming: social media, brand, self-publishing, pitching agents, KDP Direct, craft, workshops, conventions, book fairs, the list goes on. Join author, coach, and project manager J.B. Kish as he leads an interactive workshop that will help you cut through the industry noise, clearly identify your goals, and articulate the exact steps that will help you achieve them using techniques of project management.
