HOW TO: Self-Publish a Book and Make an Impact

  • Ambrose Cafe @ Heal’s first floor. 196 Tottenham Court Road London, England, W1T 7PJ United Kingdom (map)

Have you always wanted to publish your own book but don’t know where to start? Confused about publishing options and unsure about how to make an impact? Whether you want to produce a bestseller in your spare time or simply want to explore your creative side, this is the event for you!

Join us for an evening of conversation with children's book author Meg Gorman. Written, illustrated and self-published, Meg’s debut book, All Animals Count, has sold hundreds of copies in 5 countries achieving average 5-star ratings--all in less than a year.

Meg has dedicated years of research into her book and will share insights into her journey, including:

  • How to self-publish and make an impact.

  • Insights into the world of children's book publishing.

  • The research that made her book a success.

  • Learn to be more creative everyday (even if you're a banker).

All Animals Count tells the story of a boy who visits a zoo. Using colorful illustrations and a question and answer format, the book seeks to raise children's awareness of all different environments.

Proceeds during the first year of sales will go to the charity World Land Trust (WLT), an international conservation charity based in the UK. Established in 1989, its primary aim is to ensure the conservation of plants, animals and natural communities in areas at risk.
