This interactive course will provide suggestions and guidance on how to proceed from an initial idea for writing a book (or an article) to its publication. Ed will discuss all genres and the different challenges of publication for each. There will also be an examination of different avenues for publication, with or without an agent, including pros and cons of each. For those interested in self-publication, Ed will provide a step-by-step process. Also, discuss ideas on how to market your work after it has been published.
