Monthly Meeting |Self-Publishing vs. Traditional Explained

The publishing industry today looks much different than it did a decade ago. Since then, self-publishing has outgrown its longstanding "vanity" stigma and has become a viable publishing option for many writers.

In January's meeting, Friesen Press publishing consultant Christoph Koniczek will outline the ways in which self-publishing differs from traditional publishing, and how the unrestricted nature of this path might align better with your publishing needs.

Win a FREE Editor's Manuscript Evaluation! 

(A $499 value.)

Must attend the meeting to be eligible.

Details at the meeting.* 

*The special offer is for a free Editors Manuscript Evaluation- up to 60,000 words. Consultation with a publishing consultant is always free with Friesenpress, however the evaluation which is done by an editor reviews the book and provides a written analysis (similar to a book report or X-ray for your book) which provides feedback, recommendations etc usually in the form of a 6-12 page book review. The review is worth $499.

Due to what is usually inclement weather, January and February meetings will be held on Zoom.
