About The Event

With inspiring examples of great publishing successes, as well as salutary lessons from his own book's total failure to get noticed, Colin Brush shares ideas, processes and tips to help market your book from cover (title, subtitle/strap line, copy) to all-things Amazon/online and the deal with the devil that is social media.

For over 25 years Colin Brush has been a copywriter at the world's largest publisher and last year he had his first novel published (not by them), which totally failed to sell, despite his best/worst efforts.
