It has never been easier to publish and share your story. Yet, too many writers spend hundreds of hours crafting a manuscript and less than one exploring how to publish.

This follow-up session—free on ZOOM to attendees of Dave Bricker’s Storytelling and Memoir workshops—reveals transformations in the world of book publishing.

We used to have to print thousands of books to get a good price on printing. Now we can print one at a time.

We used to have to convince a publisher our book was marketable. Now we can publish high-quality books on our own.
