I run a monthly online workshop for a small group of publishing patrons. This month, it's time for our big annual review of 2022.
If I asked whether you have a couple of hours free at the end of the month, you’d probably say no. But could you carve out two hours for something you really care about—your books and your readers?
At 5pm (UK) on Friday 25th November, I’ll be meeting with a small group of my Publishing for Profit Patrons for a guided review of the past year, with a theme of What’s working, What’s not?
As indie authors, it’s always hard to hit pause and take time to reflect. There’s always something that feels more urgent. Yet if you keep on doing the same old thing, you’ll get the same old results. It makes a lot more sense to stop, take a deep look, and work out where the breaks are.
I’ll bring you through a workbook that will show what's been working for you this year, what’s holding you back, how to make the most of these last few weeks of the year, and the overall shape of the year to come. We’ll talk about tools that make things easier and you’ll establish the number one thing you should be focussing on, right now.
You’ll also give yourself credit for what did go well… and work out how to do more of that.
So often we frame intentions and set goals and then don’t stick to them, or we fail to evaluate them, or things change, or we forget. The year-end review helps you recognize how far you’ve come, as well as what now needs the most attention.
Small Private Sessions

- This is a paid program ($25 + any sales tax charged where you live).
- The aim of this program is to empower indie authors and poets to plan a profitable publishing business.
- These are not large webinars to hundreds or thousands of attendees but small-group, guided workshops.
