A Virtual Writing Retreat | May 30, 2026
You’ve written the book (or you’re close).
Now what?
Self-publishing can feel overwhelming—platform decisions, ISBNs, covers, editing, formatting, metadata, launch plans… and somehow you’re supposed to figure it all out alone.
You don’t have to.
Self-Publishing 101 Retreat is a beginner-friendly virtual workshop designed to walk you through the indie publishing process step by step—so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.
✔ The full self-publishing pipeline (without confusing jargon)
✔ KDP vs. publishing “wide” and how to choose
✔ Editing stages and how to budget wisely
✔ Covers, formatting, and ISBN basics
✔ Metadata that actually helps your book get found
✔ ARC teams + simple launch strategies
✔ A realistic publishing timeline you can follow
By the end of the retreat, you’ll walk away with a clear, customized roadmap for publishing your book.
Live virtual retreat access (Zoom)
Guided workshops + interactive Q&A
Downloadable templates (launch checklist, timeline planner, metadata worksheet)
Focused work sprint to apply what you learn
A supportive, affirming creative community
This retreat is LGBTQ+ affirming and welcoming to allies, and open to writers of all genres and experience levels.
First-time self-publishers
Authors transitioning from traditional to indie
Writers with a finished (or nearly finished) manuscript
Creatives who want structure, support, and real-world guidance
If you’re ready to stop researching and start publishing, this retreat is for you.
📅 May 30, 2026
💻 Live Online Event
🎯 Beginner-Friendly | Practical | Action-Oriented
