The Be Your Own Publisher Course Instructor
I first discovered how to be my own publisher back in 2005, though I didn't actually get around to establishing my own publishing company until April of 2006. Initially, I intended to be my own publisher alone, but after some thought, I decided to be the publisher for other aspiring and struggling authors, too. Now, after having done this rewarding work for several years, I have decided to "let the cat out of the bag" and tell everyone else how they can do it, too.
Are you interested in being your own publisher? Would you like to be able to publish your own writings at will, without begging for the attention and approval of so-called traditional publishers? Maybe you'd like to help some other struggling authors as well. Certainly, these are all worthy ambitions to have.
After you complete this short course, you'll know everything you need to know about how to create your own publishing house, but the actual work of making it happen will rest entirely on you. Are you ready to take the plunge? Perhaps you've already read the description page of what this course is about and what you can expect, and now you've read up on the instructor (my professional credentials are listed below), so all you have left to do is check out the schedule for where the next live seminar will be held, or else you can opt to go ahead and/or buy the digital course package online right now. Don't wait another minute!
