Authors,
We’re all so tired of author marketing workshops and classes that eat up our time and money, but leave us with only a vague idea of what to do next. A real masterclass should not only show great techniques, but make sure that you have mastered those techniques BEFORE you leave the class. It’s the elusive missing puzzle piece to success!
If you’re serious about creating real book sales results in 2019, do not miss this opportunity! This new, intense, and informative live Author Success Masterclass will top anything you’ve tried before.
I’ve been blessed to team up with Demi Stevens, The Book Whisperer and CEO of Year of the Book Press, to create and present this live Masterclass in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Demi provides concierge-level coaching, editing, and indie publishing services to new and established authors, and offers a plethora of expanded skills, techniques, and understanding for authors.
Masterclass will be held on Saturday, February 16 from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, and Sunday, February 17 from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM at The Well Church Meeting Room located at 213 Bailey Avenue, Pittsburgh Pa 15211 in Mount Washington. (Off-street parking is available in back of church, and there is an elevator to the beautiful meeting room overlooking downtown Pittsburgh)
Over 10 information-packed hours, we will cover:

Hi Deborah, I don’t know if you remember me from our Facebook conversations before you moved back to Pittsburgh. I too was raised in Pittsburgh and left after I graduating from Peabody High School in 1968 (back when PHS still existed). I am writing now in response to your invitation to attend “THE MISSING PUZZLE PIECE FOR SUCCESS”. I received the invitation yesterday; unfortunately, too late to alter my plans for February. I am hoping that, by pleading most sincerely, you might consider selling DVDs of the event. I don’t doubt there are many other authors who will be unable to attend, but would be extremely interested in access to the information presented. I look forward to your positive response. However, whether DVDs can be developed, I wish l you every success at the event. Sincerely, Franz McLaren __________________________________________________ Website: http://www.franzmclaren.com/ Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/author/franzmclarenFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/franz.mclaren

Of course I remember you, Franz!
What a wonderful idea. I’m not sure how to make a DVD happen, that would require camera and mics and other things for editing. However, perhaps we can do a webinar series for this Masterclass. Something that can be purchased, then viewed at the student’s convenience. You’ve got my wheels turning. Thanks so much, and it’s great to hear from you.
Hope all’s well!
