Girls in Tech Santa Cruz is proud to present:

Leveraging Today’s Technologies to Publish Your Book

Last year 764,448 titles were produced by self-publishers and so-called microniche publishers – up an astonishing 181 percent from the previous year – and just 288,355 titles were published through traditional publishers (down from 289,729 the year before). Book publishing is simply becoming self-publishing.

FastPencil Co-Founder and CTO, Michael Ashley will lead the conversation on how you can leverage today’s various technologies to get your book published.

Attendees will learn:

  • How to publish your book including tips on getting started and uploading or importing existing content.
  • How to share work with reviewers and editors through social media platform.
  • How to utilize the social web to promote your book project while you are writing it.
  • How to distribute your book.
  • How to use free online tools to promote your book.

Attendees must RSVP here: http://publishingtech.eventbrite.com

Girls in Tech is grateful to have NextSpace as the event’s gracious host.
