The Fourth Self-Publishing Conference takes place on Saturday 7th May 2016 at the University of Leicester. Once more the event brings together key figures in the self-publishing industry for the benefit of self-publishing authors. The conference is the perfect day out for authors thinking about, or already involved in, self-publishing their work.

Whether you are going it alone or using a self-publishing company, the multiple sessions on a wide variety of topics will be invaluable. This year we’re honoured to announced that our Keynote Speaker is Caroline Sanderson, Associate Editor of The Bookseller; plus a plenary session is being given by Dr Alison Baverstock (Kingston University) about how self-publishing is now an established part of publishing.

Speakers include;

  • Debbie Young (Alliance of Independent Authors) on how to avoid the ‘self-published stigma’
  • Cressida Downing (The Book Analyst) on how to get the best synopses, blurbs and keywords
  • James Peak (Essential Music) on how to publish and release an audiobook for sale
  • Helen Lewis (Literally PR) on how to plan a successful book launch. 

Other confirmed speakers for 2016 include Helen McCusker (Booked PR), Neil Clarke (TJ International), Louise Jordan (The Writers’ Advice Centre for Children), Aimee Coveney (Author Design Studio), Diego Marano (Kobo), Helen Hollick (The Historical Novel Society) and Clive Herbert (Nielsen Book) who between them will offer advice and expertise on everything from making sales and getting book reviews, to publishing an ebook and editing manuscripts.

Registration for the 2016 conference is just £65.00 per person – this includes a delegate’s pack, morning coffee, buffet lunch, afternoon tea, an early-evening drinks reception and a wide choice from over 16 sessions on different aspects of self-publishing.
