The Early Bird is ON … and ends June 30th
Hear Ye … Hear Ye … Hear Ye … awesome author Lisa Reinicke is sponsoring ONE lucky attendee who registers for the AuthorYOU Extravaganza between now and June 30th—that’s when the early bird ends. Get registered NOW—500 bucks is 500 bucks and why shouldn’t YOU be the lucky (and I do mean lucky) recipient?
ALL Extravaganza entries between NOW and the 30th will be put in the magic random drawing basket. Someone gets a totally free pass.
And I love this … one of our final sessions on Saturday is a hands-on workshop where everyone will actually create a TipGraphic under the guidance of John Kremer and Daniel Hall and publish it on Saturday, August 25. A fabulous, easy peasy way to promo you, your expertise, and of course your book.
Attached is the full AGENDA. The speakers are in place—yup, all of them. A fabulous location that should be viewed as an Author’s Retreat is in place—what’s not to love about Breckenridge, Colorado and the beautiful mountains in the summertime? If you want a deep dive learning experience; if you want a time and place where you can talk with a literary agent; if you want to get photos done; if you want to excel your publishing … then SHOW UP!
