If a writer pens something amazing in the woods and no one is around to read it, does it make a sound? No! No it does not. Marketing your work is essential to building an audience. Whether you want to get more people to listen to your podcast, have someone remember you after a Lit Cleveland mixer or more simply answer the question, "What do you create?", you need to be able to talk about your work clearly, concisely, and compellingly. Get inspired to share your work as we talk about the basics of self-marketing from social media to websites to that ever-critical elevator pitch. This workshop will strengthen your voice and build your confidence. Guaranteed.
