I've teamed up with Betsy Tobin, author and co-owner of Ink@84 Books, to launch Savvy Writers Pro, essentially a ‘business school for authors’ with a series of live, online workshops focused on the business side of being an author. Over the past couple of years we’ve had dozens of  conversations  with frustrated writers who feel as if they’re operating with imperfect information within an industry whose constraints they don’t fully understand.   At the same time, the business side of writing has become louder, faster and even more demanding. These workshops will give authors access to clear, insider guidance aimed at published authors or those about to embark on their publication journey.
