Communications company Chris Green Media will be providing inspiration and the essential information first-time authors need to know before writing, publishing and marketing their own book in a four-hour online course.

Delivered by group webinar on Friday 23 July from 9am to 1pm, Is There a Book in It? will explain the emotions and practicalities involved in unleashing your creative talents on a wider audience.

Hosted by award-nominated sports book authors Chris Green and Tom Watt, who penned the best-selling autobiography David Beckham: My Side, the course focuses on four key areas of authorship:

  1. Motivation - Why are you writing your book, what is it about and what do you aim to achieve. How do you identify your target readership and condense these thoughts into a synopsis that will help sell your book to publishers and act as a mission statement.
  1. Writing - How to shape a creative writing schedule that works for you and developing a defined narrative style for your story.
  1. Publishing options - An assessment of the options available including a cost analysis calculator of the differing choices.
  1. Sales and marketing - How you can take your book to market and get out there to publicise it.

A workbook and CGM 's Guide to Publishing is included in the course fee.
