The publishing industry today looks much different than it did a decade ago. In that time, self-publishing has outgrown its longstanding 'vanity' stigma and become a viable publishing option for many writers. The traditional publishing industry has also experienced great changes and as a result it just isn’t what it used to be, even for those who’ve found success within the system.
This workshop provides an overview of the modern book publishing landscape and gives advice to authors on how to successfully navigate it. We’ll discuss the general publishing options of Traditional Publishing, DIY, and Assisted Self-Publishing — how it all works and the logistics of moving your book from the computer screen to the bookshelf.
After the Webinar:
To one attendee, following the webinar, we will give out a Free Editor Evaluation, which is a $499 value! We will gather these entries via QR code during the presentation.
Presenter: Christoph Koniczek
Christoph Koniczek joined FriesenPress's team of employee owners in 2013, reconnecting with his passion for literature after a career in the culinary arts. A Publishing Consultant with the largest publishing services provider in Canada, Christoph has assisted authors with bringing over 2,000 titles to the market (and counting) in his decade-plus in the trade. When he isn't busy helping authors find their path, you can find him with a good book (European history and science fiction are favourites) and a strong cup of chai tea.

Our Goal:
Short term, our goal is simple. To get in front of authors and get them the education they want in regards to publishing their books.
Long term however, our goal is to build relationships with organizations and writing communities such as yourselves. To create and present and discuss educational content on a yearly/bi-yearly basis, and to be a trusted source of information for these communities.
Thank you for registering for this webinar. We can’t wait to see you there!
