The Life of a Black Author

Author, Crown Shepherd will share strategies for successfully marketing your book, from her experiences in the book publishing industry.

Did you know that only 5% of published authors are Black? The book publishing industry is historically white-centered and to this day less than 5% of book publishers are Black. Where does that leave you as a Black author?

Join Crown the Writer as she explains what it takes to market your book and promote yourself in a market that does not see how much Black authors matter.

This information session is sponsored by Strive Community Publishing, where we work to inspire community collaboration in publishing stories to heal, teach, learn, and earn while building an ecosystem that embodies a rich Black culture and heritage.

BONUS! All attendees will be entered in a drawing for a free "Black Authors Matter" T-shirt (pictured) from Cush City, the home of Black Authors Matter TV.
