SUMMARY:Short Storyathon
DESCRIPTION: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. \nBecome 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! \nWhy a short story? \nBecause 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). \nIf 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. \nOther Benefits? \nWriting a short story and publishing it on platforms like Amazon can offer several benefits: \nCreative 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. \nSkill 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. \nPortfolio 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. \nVisibility 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. \nMonetary 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. \nBuilding 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. \nNetworking 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. \nExperimentation 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. \nDon’t wait! The time is never going to be ‘perfect’ to stop and write\, so use this event to get started! \nYour Facilitator \nHello! I’m Sonja Dewing\, best-selling author and award-winning creative writer. I’ve helped hundreds of authors write novels and short stories\, it’s time you joined my event and get writing! \n\nReady? Buy your tickets and let’s get writing! https://womensthrillerwriters.thrivecart.com/short-storyathon-oct-11-early-bird-150/ \nNot only will you publish\, you’ll get a chance at one of the awesome banners from Amazon!
