REGISTRATION CLOSED Who Dares Wins: Warrior-Writer Presented by Bob Mayer

WHAT IS WARRIOR WRITER?
Warrior Writer is a holistic approach that gives the writer a road map to become a successful author.  Warrior Writer integrates the artist’s creativity with the business savvy needed to succeed in publishing.  This workshop covers all aspects of an author’s role from creator of the book to being an integral part of the business end of seeing that book in a reader’s hands.  The world of publishing is changing at an incredible rate.  New technologies have required authors to adjust to a different mindset.  Today’s authors have to not only write the better book, but create a platform for themselves.  Social media is also changing the face of marketing.  Formal author training does not exist in traditional publishing.  Warrior Writer fills this gap by giving authors the tools they need to be successful in today’s new face of publishing.

WHAT WARRIOR WILL ADDRESS:
It is a nine-step plan that will give writers a flow to becoming the most successful author they can be.  This includes finding personal blind spots that are hurting the writing and their career.  Warrior Writer will help writers develop a plan to enrich their writing, and overcome hurdles.

Integral to the program is how to develop a career path with agents and editors that includes author goals in terms of books, theme, unifying concept, all the way down to organizing one’s day-to-day writing.  The ins-and-outs of running a business as a self-employed author, and become an integral part of the publishing world including doing an ‘author’ dissection of a successful author whose career can serve as a template for yours. Of particular focus in creativity are finding true fears, developing courage to conquer them, and uncovering each person’s unique creative tactics & strategies.
