THE SELF PUBLISHING SHOW LIVE

Welcome to the Self Publishing Show Live 2022! Sponsored by Amazon and attended by the biggest indie brands such as Reedsy and Draft2Digital (and plenty more), there was no better place to learn the secrets behind indie author success. With special guests ranging from Joanna Penn (The Creative Penn) to Michael Anderle (author & indie publisher) to Lucy Score (internationally bestselling romance novelist), we packed the two-day schedule with the biggest and best names in the business.

Didn't make it to London? Worry not. Every session has been recorded and edited by a professional film crew for you to watch in your own time - at home!

The lessons you take away from the conference sessions might change your life. And that’s not just marketing hyperbole. Here’s a quote from Benedict Brown:
