What happens in vegas doesn't have to stay there.
Whether you've attended the "Act Like an Author, Think Like a Business Conference" in Las Vegas, or simply heard about it through the grapevine, our online shop carries all the curriculum taught in the conference main sessions. And guess what? This curriculum is also a prerequisite to our MBA in Publishing Program.
And for those who have young children, grandchildren, Godchildren, nieces, nephews, and cousins who have written books, journals, school assignments, and the likes, don’t just brag about them on social media, store their writings away in the attic, or leave their projects hanging on a refrigerator magnet for years. Learn how to become their publisher so that their written works, gifts, talent, and message can be shared with the world! Use these courses to help you go From Parent to Publisher (TM).
Did you pay to attend the "Act Like an Author, Think Like a Business" Conference and would now like a copy of all three days of the main session instruction on audiovisual to refer to at your leisure, and as many times as you'd like?
It's not too late to purchase them. The audiovisual format of the conference curriculum slides is the best because you get to hear the main course instructor, Joylynn M. Ross (Master Literary Educator and founder of Path To Publishing), teaching live! If you didn't attend #PTPCON, no worries, you can purchase the audiovisual instruction slides, too!
***The audiovisual recording is like being right there at the conference (again). Anything that wasn't captured on the slides (or in your notes) that main instructor Joylynn M. Ross might have adlibbed, you can hear on the audiovisual slides.***
AUDIOVISUAL BUNDLE
If you missed the "Act Like an Author, Think Like a Business" Conference, now is your time to have a front row seat . . . in your living room.

Ross, teaching live at the conference from the main session curriculum slides.

There is more to being an author than writing, publishing, and selling a book.
Many authors dive into the literary industry without first taking the time to learn the business side of being an author, let alone how to navigate the waters of the literary industry once they're in knee-deep. With an ever-changing industry, mastering the art of financial literary success is something that can take years, not to mention the mistakes that will be made during the learning phase; mistakes that could cost you money, and mistakes that could keep you from making money. But that is what this tool and resource is for; to shorten your learning curve so that you can start making money with your book and literary business now.
Act Like an Author, Think Like a Business: Ways to Achieve Financial Literary Success by Path To Publishing CEO & Founder, Joylynn M. Ross, is a resource every author should have in their author took kit. It's one that every publisher and every literary agent should provide to their clients.
