Publishers Weekly and BookLife are honored to present the first-ever BookLife Indie Author Forum, a virtual conference for independent authors. Join us for a full day of programming devoted to celebrating the ever-evolving and rapidly expanding world of self-publishing.

The forum will include panel discussions and breakout sessions featuring successful authors and knowledgeable professionals. Areas of focus will include demystifying the self-publishing process; identifying the genre of your book and reaching the right

audience; designing a great book cover; working with an editor; and mastering a social media presence, among many other topics. Attendees will take away essential tools and valuable insider knowledge relating to all aspects of self-publishing and book marketing—as well as a greater appreciation for the vibrant and diverse indie author community. Click to hear two special messages from Carl Pritzkat, COO of PW and president of BookLife, and from BookLife's editor, Matia Madrona Query.
