1. Guest Speaking engagements
Most authors shy away from presenting their work but one of the best avenues for self-promotion can be attending and speaking at writers festivals, visiting book clubs and presenting at local organisations.
This not only gives you a professional profile but it builds on your contacts, database and raises sales.
We welcome clubs and groups etc looking for Author Guest Speakers to contact us.
