About this Event
Ready to get published?
Got a book idea and wondering how to actually get it published - properly, professionally, and without getting ripped off?
The Regional Writers Roadshow is a practical publishing workshop designed to show regional authors and business owners how to take an idea and turn it into a real, market-ready book.
What You’ll Learn:
✅ The three main publishing pathways: traditional, supported and self-publishing - and which suits your goals
✅ What publishers, printers and distributors really look for
✅ How to avoid costly mistakes, dodgy contracts and vanity publishing traps
✅ The step-by-step publishing process (from manuscript to finished book)
✅ What editing, cover design, ISBNs and distribution actually involve
You’ll Also Get:
✅ Practical digital publishing checklists and templates
✅ Real-world advice tailored to regional and rural authors
✅ Live Q&A to get clear answers about your publishing options
✅ Opportunities to connect with other local authors and creators
Who’s It For?
Perfect for:
✅ First-time authors planning their first book
✅ Writers ready to publish but unsure where to start
✅ Business owners creating authority or credibility books
✅ Authors who’ve been burned before and want to do it right this time
You don’t need a finished manuscript - just a book idea and the desire to understand how publishing really works.
