Workshops

You have a dream to publish a book. Now’s the time to realize it.

Publishing shouldn’t be so mysterious. At Lucinda Literary, we’re on a mission to demystify, educate, and bring your book idea to market through our live events, consultations, and on-demand courses.

Want to know what course is right for you? Email us or book a complimentary strategy session.

Join agent Lucinda Halpern and a small group of writers in our first-time marketing mini-intensive, consisting of a full class in marketing, interactive exercises, group discussion, and Q&A that will help drastically increase your chances of book success. You’ll come away with plenty of tools and insights, plus your own custom marketing plan packet, which you can put into action right away!

This session will also feature special guest Fauzia Burke, head of FSB Associates and one of the most respected book marketers and publicists in the industry. Fauzia will join us in teaching this class to share her expertise and answer all of your burning questions.

Ideal for fiction and nonfiction writers at any stage of the process.
