Short Storyathon

October 11 @ 5:00 pm - October 13 @ 5:00 pm

$150

This virtual short story event will take you from idea creation (on Friday night) all the way to your published short story on Amazon by Sunday! This is a fast-paced, hard-working writing workshop but so rewarding.

Become a Published Author in a Weekend!Many attendees, even first time authors, hit the top rankings in their genre and a few have even become best sellers!

Why a short story?

Because it’s a quick way to get writing and see the process of publishing a quality product (because you can produce something good in a weekend and we’ve seen it happen every time).

If you’re building an author platform, this is a good way to create an introduction to your other novels. If you’ve never written, it’s a good way to start getting readers.

Other Benefits?

Writing a short story and publishing it on platforms like Amazon can offer several benefits:

Creative Expression: Writing a short story allows you to express your creativity and explore your imagination. It’s a medium to share your unique ideas, perspectives, and storytelling skills.

Skill Development: Writing, editing, and publishing a short story can enhance your writing skills. It provides an opportunity to refine your storytelling techniques, character development, and overall narrative structure.

Portfolio Building: If you aspire to be a writer, having a published short story on platforms like Amazon can serve as a valuable addition to your portfolio. It showcases your ability to create engaging content.

Visibility and Recognition: Amazon is a widely used platform, and publishing your short story there increases its visibility. Positive reviews and downloads can contribute to recognition among readers and fellow writers.

Monetary Potential: While not guaranteed, there is potential to earn money through royalties on Amazon. If readers find your short story interesting and decide to purchase it, you may receive a portion of the sales.

Building an Audience: Publishing on Amazon allows you to reach a global audience. If readers enjoy your short story, they might be interested in your future works, helping you build a fan base.

Networking Opportunities: Being part of a writing publishing community opens up opportunities to connect with other authors, publishers, and readers. Networking can lead to collaborations, feedback, and mutual support.

Experimentation and Feedback: A short story is a manageable format that allows you to experiment with different genres, styles, and themes. Additionally, reader reviews and feedback on platforms like Amazon can provide insights for improvement.

Don’t wait! The time is never going to be ‘perfect’ to stop and write, so use this event to get started!
