From anthologies to Kindle Singles, short stories are back. How can you make this new publishing market work best for you?
Do you want to publish in the new, booming short story market? Join Jessica, a team editor on the most successful Australian short story anthology series of all time – Girls’ Night In and Kids’ Night In. Learn how to improve your drafts, pitch to the magazine market, get noticed by mainstream publishers and e-publish with Kindle and Smashwords.
Short stories are like singles, as opposed to albums. They can promote your novels, but stand alone as successes in their own right. In this masterclass we will look at commercial women’s fiction, mysteries and erotica as genre examples to explore. Bring along your work and master the art of the blurb and crucial first page. Update your online knowledge with the latest trends in social media, book review sites and other crucial publicity sources.
