This real-world course will teach students the process of book writing and the technology to independently publish their next print and e-books. Students will learn everything they need to know about naming files, organizing folders, a table of contents, peer grouping, Track Changes, cut and paste, an index, choose an Internet platform, ISBNs, barcodes, copyrights, recruiting experts and celebrities to write your foreword and testimonial quotes, how to raise tax-deductible donations, and more.
Exercises will stretch students' understandings of who they are as writers and how much they can write when they keep the vision. One goal: create an ongoing supportive peer group that will outlive the course. Ken Wachsberger leads this study group beginning Monday April 11 through May 2.
Pre-registration is required via the OLLI website or phone. A link to access the study group will be e-mailed to you approximately one week prior to the first session.
