Do you want to learn how to self-publish your book with style? We can help.
Our course will talk you through the most common mistakes, secrets, and the top tips you need to know to self-publish a book to be proud of. We’ll show you how you can get your self-published book on Waterstones.com, or even create a hardback version, whilst keeping the costs low.
We believe in your book. And we can help you turn your dream into a reality.

Self-publishing takes a lot of work, but it doesn’t have to feel hard, it can be fun. Each week we’ll set a ‘homework’ task to help you develop your learning and increase your understanding of self-publishing.
Our courses are fast-paced and jam-packed with information. We teach in a creative and practical way. You’ll find your sessions filled with prompts and tasks as well as detailed information broken down into practical steps for you to action.
When the course starts, you’ll also receive a digital copy of our Introduction to Self-publishing Workbook.
We are only offering 5 places for this course. You will work with a small, intimate group of like-minded people. We wanted to create a supportive environment to allow you to feel comfortable and confident.
You’ll have email support throughout the course, should you have questions or need help.
After completing the course, you’ll gain access to a private storyteller’s Facebook group, exclusively for our course alumni. The group is bursting with regular ideas, prompts, tips and a supportive community full of like-minded people to help you on your writing journey.
