Professional Book Publishing Step by Step

Publishing your work step by step

“ We have now reached the end of the course on marketing your book. Thank you very much for your interest and participation. I hope I was able to give you a good insight into the publishing industry so that you can go into the marketing process armed with this knowledge. I really enjoyed it and I'm looking forward to your project!

Now I will give you a brief overview of how this course works. After a short introduction to the genre of fiction and finding a topic, I guided you through our most important document - the synopsis. This is your tool for getting your book idea out to people. But the work is not done with this synopsis. I have shown you the advantages of contacting an agent for your book - and when it is not necessary. Then we talked about everything that happens behind the scenes when you send your manuscript to the publisher with or without the help of an agency: the editing conference. Your book has been accepted, what does the publisher's offer actually look like? What do you have to pay attention to and make sure you get better contract terms? Then I showed you some examples of editing and explained the process on the way to the cover of your book. Last but not least, I gave you some tips on launching your social media campaign. Tell me about your book project in the forum and upload your exposé there. I will be there to give you advice and feedback. Be sure to exchange ideas with the other course participants there too. Thank you for participating and see you in the forum! Bye!”
