I’m Finally Going to Write That Book! Workshop
March 27, 2010
9am to 1pm
The Council
303 Jackson Hill Street
Houston TX 77007
Speaker, media consultant and published author Dayna Steele will help you get started and guide you through the steps to write the book, edit it and get the book published and sold. Self publishing is now widely respected across the literary world and easier than ever before. As Author Solutions CEO Kevin Weiss states in the video to the right, “first it was independent movies, then music, now books.”
“Writing and publishing a book has been the most rewarding, exhilarating, frustrating and expensive
thing I have ever taken on short of having a teenager. Over the past year, so many people have asked me how I did it, that I decided it was time to pass on the many, many lessons I have learned.”
–Dayna Steele
