Creative Planning: Quarterly Review & Forecast for Authors & Poets

** Unfortunately, the Spiralbound (SB) format of this planner cannot currently be shipped to the US or Canada. Please order the Paperback (PB) format instead.**

Success in self-publishing doesn’t happen by accident. Whatever genre you write in—whether fiction, nonfiction or poetry—both writing and publishing are complex and challenging tasks. An integrated program and a plan of action makes everything easier.

In her book, Creative Self-Publishing, novelist and poet Orna Ross draws on years of experience, both as a working indie author and director of the Alliance of Independent Authors, to provide a tried-and-tested self-publishing program for writers.

An accompanying series of planners to guide authors and poets through this program, step by step.

It also offers a process that will allow you to enjoy the work, not just on the days you publish a book, but every day of every working week.

These planners are supported by an online creative community and weekly accountability group.
