Join us for a LIVE book marketing conference!


Hello Reader,

I am so excited to make this announcement! While we've been running the Women in Publishing Summit virtually for 8 years (plus two virtual conferences before that) - we've never taken the leap to do an in person conference.

We get asked every year - when will there be an IN PERSON event?

Well, my friends. It's in October! We're having a 3 day event in Charlotte, NC from Oct 4-6, 2024 and it's going to be incredible!

Join us in Charlotte!

Sponsored by Abundantly Social (and some other great companies we'll be sharing about!) - this event has a top notch lineup of speakers and topics.

I'm so excited to have partnered up with Keri-Rae Barnum, a book marketing master and owner of New Shelves Books, to bring this event to you. Keri-Rae and I have worked very hard to put together an agenda that we know is going to have an impact in your book marketing and growth of your author business.

Our theme is: Grow Your Author Empire; OWN your Author Empire.

Over the course of 3 days, you'll learn strategies and tools to not only grow their reader base, but how to energize it and OWN it, without breaking the bank or spending all your time marketing!

The in person, intimate event, capped at 70 attendees, features a unique conference experience, blending marketing workshops with implementation / collaboration and 1:1 time with book marketing experts.

When you leave, you'll have action steps ready to go for growing your author business.

  • Learn from experts in platform growth
  • Be inspired by successful authors - including keynotes by two sought-after speakers, Roshanda Pratt & Jenny Proctor
  • Meet with companies and experts who specialize in book marketing and author platform growth
  • Win cool prizes - we'll have discount offers and door prizes galore
  • Connect with and build relationships with other authors for future collaborations
  • Have fun!

Your ticket includes hors d'oeuvres Friday night, coffee/tea service and snacks Saturday and Sunday, and lunch, Saturday and Sunday, plus a WHOLE lot of SWAG and goodies!

Learn more and grab your ticket today before Early Bird ends or they sell out!

Reply if you have questions and we'll get back to you soon!

I am SO excited and hope you are too!

Hello Reader, Two big changes at Amazon KDP! No more download and transfer via USB No more .mobi files (very important!) First, let's discuss the hoopla over the download and transfer via USB. I've seen a lot of people losing their minds over the changes Amazon announced about Kindle downloads - including some viral TikToks that led to people wanting to boycott kindle entirely, and I wanted to make sure you've got the most up to date information to battle the disinformation. What’s Changing?...

Hello Reader, I can hardly believe we've entered December. Of course, I lost a good chunk of this year to a major health crisis, so I'm really GLAD to see December and say goodbye to 2024. I'm also REALLY glad to celebrate my 48th birthday this month. Because as my doctor reminded me recently, it wasn't guaranteed for a little while there.
