About this event

With a focus on pragmatic and actionable advice, Courtney Maum will empower debuting authors with the knowledge they’ll need to make the most of their first publishing experience. From tips on pre-pub communication with your editorial team to navigating the stormy waters of self-promotion and prepping for interviews (both virtual and IRL), the author of BEFORE AND AFTER THE BOOK DEAL will deliver been-there-made-that-mistake wisdom in her signature heartfelt, candid style.

Note: This talk will focus on the time period from when an author receives their first book deal through post-launch, because this is a time period where authors have many questions and there are fewer resources. For the scope of this talk, we will not be covering "before the book deal" subjects like querying or researching agents.

ABOUT THE EVENT

This is a live, online event. Within 15 minutes of registering , you'll receive a link with your Zoom joining instructions - please contact support@inkedvoices.com if you do not and we'll help you get it resolved.

We'll send a link to the recording the day after the webinar and it will be available to rewatch for the next 30 days.

Courtney Maum is the author of the novels Costalegre (a GOOP book club pick and one of Glamour Magazine’s top books of the decade), I Am Having So Much Fun Here Without You and Touch (a New York Times Editor’s Choice and NPR Best Book of the Year selection), and the handbook Before and After the Book Deal: A writer’s guide to finishing, publishing, promoting, and surviving your first book. Courtney’s writing has been widely published in such outlets as the New York Times, and O, the Oprah Magazine, and her short story "This is Not Your Fault" was turned into an Audible Original at Amazon.
