Publishing has changed more in the past year than it has in the previous 50. And the rate of change is getting faster and faster. The rules that seemed to be written in stone have begun to erode and are disappearing entirely.

Change is exciting and confusing at the same time. There are more opportunities to get published than ever before—if you know what you’re doing. Now, with all the changes, it’s harder than ever to know what to do. And, wrong decisions can be costly errors. But what if you had a mentor to guide you to the next step—no matter where you are right now?

Join publisher and author Shelley Lieber in a free teleclass that will help you make informed decisions about how to:

• Choose between traditional publishing and self-publishing
• Avoid scams
• Choose the right POD publisher
• Publish your work as an ebook, audio book or print book
• Find print and digital markets for your work
• Build a waiting audience before your book comes out
• Use social networking sites effectively (and not waste your time)
• Create a buzz with free publicity

Ebooks are hot, hot, hot! It’s the biggest buzz in publishing today because digital books represent the fastest (and perhaps only) growing segment of the industry. Publishers and authors aren’t asking if they should publish an ebook anymore; they’re asking when they should publish the ebook–with the print editiion, before  or after?

Are you still sitting on the sidelines, wondering how to get on top of this burgeoning publishing trend, which is quickly becoming the standard? Well, now’s your chance to ask the expert.

On Wednesday, August 5, at 2:00pm ET, The Wordy Woman will interview guest Mark Coker, founder of Smashwords, during an all-new teleclass “Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Publishing Digital Books.” Mark is a popular speaker on the topic, serving on panels and making presentations at industry events all over the country.

During this tele-class you will learn:

• What an ebook is, what it’s not and why it’s hot
• If ebooks will lead to the death–or rebirth–of print books
• What DRM is and if it’s necessary
• What you need to know about formatting an ebook
• How to get your book on Kindle, iPhone and other ereaders
• How to price your ebook
• Plus, whatever else you want to ask!

Don’t miss this exclusive opportunity to learn from Mark during a free class and ask your questions! Recently,120 participants at Mark’s tele-class at IBPA University paid $49 – $69 to attend. This really is a one-time chance to learn from a digital publisher and ask questions live at no cost to you.*

Relax. You don’t have to fill your novel or screenplay with 140 characters to be a successful author! In this instance, “characters” refer to single letters or numerals used in each entry, or “tweet,” on Twitter, the popular the micro-blogging site. So what does tweeting messages only 140 characters long have to do with publishing success?

“Everything,” says Shelley Lieber, The Wordy Woman, who was recently named by Mashable.com as one of “70+ Authors to Follow on Twitter,” along with such best-selling authors as Deepak Chopra, Tony Robbins, Tim Ferris, Suze Orman, Mariel Hemingway and Arianna Huffington.

Now is the best time in history of publishing to be an author because everything is changing. “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.” Get it? There are more opportunities to get published than ever before–if you know what you’re doing. But with all the changes, it’s harder than ever to know what to do.

From where you’re standing, you may not be able to see how you can achieve publishing success. It may seem very far off in a distant future, or perhaps down a road with too many obstacles. It’s not your fault. Today’s publishing industry has been turned upside down and you need a roadmap to navigate all the new twists and turns on the road to publishing success.

4Ps to Publishing Success (print version) was published exactly one year ago. Yet already many new trends in publishing have emerged to change the landscape of the industry and what authors must do in order to succeed. So I’m offering a tele-class to update the information in the book with new strategies to match the new mindsets.

4Ps 2009: The Indie Author’s 4-Step Guide to Publishing Success is your roadmap through the maze of confusion and misinformation surrounding self-publishing and Print on Demand (POD) publishing. This 4-week tele-course will teach you the basic principles necessary for good publishing, inform you with up-to-date information about the changing face of today’s publishing market, and arm you with the knowledge you need to avoid losing money on scams and rip-offs.
