At the Festival

Anthony Viney’s self-publishing workshop offers a practical guide for anyone who believes there may be a book in them.

Drawing on his own publishing experience, Anthony will take participants through the journey from first draft to finished book, exploring the key stages of preparing, publishing and promoting your work.

The workshop will also cover marketing, costs and the effective use of social media platforms to reach readers.

With audience participation and practical exercises encouraged, this session is ideal for aspiring authors looking for clear, accessible guidance on bringing their book into the world.
