The Self-Publishing Blueprint
About this Event
The Self-Publishing Blueprint Workshop 📚✨
Have you always dreamed of writing your own book but don't know where to start? Or perhaps you've started your manuscript and need help turning it into a professionally published book on Amazon?
Join us for an interactive 4-hour self-publishing workshop designed to take you from idea to published author.
During this hands-on session, you'll learn how to:
✍🏾 Write and structure your manuscript – plan your chapters, organise your ideas, and create a book people will love.
🎨 Format your book in Canva – learn how to professionally design your book's interior pages.
📖 Create your cover and illustrations – discover how to design an eye-catching cover and visuals that bring your book to life.
🚀 Publish on Amazon KDP – upload your book, understand royalties, and get your book ready to sell worldwide.
Whether you're writing a children's book, workbook, journal, educational resource, or business book, this workshop will give you the tools and confidence to make it happen.
✨ No publishing experience is needed – just bring your ideas and enthusiasm
🥐 Refreshments will be provided throughout the workshop.
Leave with a clear roadmap, practical skills, and the confidence to take the next step towards becoming a published author.
Your story deserves to be shared. Let's bring your book to life.
See you there!
