Build Your Author Platform

Convincing readers to buy your book is easier when they know who you are. In this 90-minute workshop, author brand advisor Jessica Sorentino will guide you through the essentials of building an authentic author platform that connects with readers, agents, and publishers. You'll start to identify your personal brand, learn how to represent yourself as the main character of your story, and create sustainable habits for showing up for your community—without feeling chronically online.

All attendees will receive The Notebook, Jessica's content planner designed specifically for writers, featuring brand activation prompts, marketing organization spreads, and space to bring your book (and dreams) to life.

Limited to 14 participants.
