“Where do I start?” is a question many authors ask when it comes time to market both their beloved masterpiece, and themselves. This interactive presentation represents a beginner’s guide for authors, designed to get them on the right track when it comes to branding themselves, marketing their work, and reaching their audience. It covers the essentials of social media, websites, public speaking, marketing methodology, and more.
Andrew Buckley is a film school-educated writer, which means he’s spent most of his life with no money and a strong opinion about bad movies. Today, he’s a traditional and self-published novelist of rather silly, yet enjoyable speculative fiction for all ages, a comic book writer, screenwriter, podcaster, creator, and keynote speaker.
For over 20 years, he’s worked in the dreaded world of marketing as a content creator, copywriter, and strategist for large national and international brands. He actively develops curriculum and teaches marketing, social media, and communication theory at the post-secondary level. He has a terrible habit of writing and speaking with a humorous and satirical slant despite being asked politely on numerous occasions to ‘please stop doing that’.
