Self-Publishing with KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing): A Workshop In-Person

Learn the ins and outs of self-publishing on the Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) platform with author and publisher Mark McNease. Mr. McNease is the author of 14 novels, all of which have been published through KDP. He is a two-time Emmy winner, and currently serves as a board member for the Mystery Writers of America – New York Chapter. In this workshop you’ll learn the process from final draft to published book and beyond, with additional topics that include book cover creation, self-promotion, exclusivity versus ‘wide’ distribution, and the process of publishing audiobooks.

For local friends: I’m facilitating an adult writers group every second Tuesday of the month starting next week. Join us at the New Hope (PA) Free Library, 6 – 7 pm. This is a non-critical, safe environment for writers, those who want to write, and the write-curious.

Also: Monday, September 30, join us for a free 2-hour workshop on Self-Publishing with KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing). 6:30 – 8:30 PM. This is at the wonderful Hunterdon County Library in Flemington.

It’s so nice to do what you love!

How exciting! I’ll be facilitating an adult writers group at the New Hope (PA) library starting September 10.

If you’ve followed me, you know I’ve been working on this a long time. I’ve just published a second edition of Dreamshaping: On Shaping Reality and Living Our Dreams, and I couldn’t be happier to put it out there. I’ll  also be creating a Dreamshaping Workshop for next year! I’m very excited about that, and I think it’s going to be a wonderful experience sharing the ways we create the dreams we call our lives, and how to live them with exuberance.

From the book’s description:

In this Second Edition of Dreamshaping: On Shaping Reality and Living Our Dreams, we find a collection of writings about our ability to shape the lives we live, the dreams we live. These words of advice and experience, presented in easy-to-read short chapters, are more essential than ever as we navigate the dreamscape of our everyday world. Quotes and commentary add to the suggestions made in this simple dreamer’s guide, and everything is presented in a way that makes it possible for anyone to do. As the introduction says, dreamshaping is not wishful thinking, it is wishful doing. Follow along and read about listening to our bodies, and letting go of the poisons in our lives, and embracing change without fearing it. Use this simple dreamer’s guide to steer a course toward freedom, self-acceptance, and exuberance in your life. And remember, all things are of the substance of dreams.

You have to dream to have a dream come true.
