Course Description

Overview

Do you have a manuscript ready and are wondering what steps to take next and how to self-publish your words? Enroll in Monika Kanokova’s class to learn more about self-publishing your non-fiction book. 

Monika has self-published two guides for freelance creatives and has turned to Skillshare to help others follow her lead to get their manuscript out. 

This class doesn't cover how to write a book, but rather how to publish and market a book and how to establish continuous sales. It’s a hands-on manual guiding you from draft to a finished book. 

Perfect for everyone who is keen to explore the world of self-publishing and wants to learn how to use social media to establish continuous, organic sales.
