Let’s Talk Television

If you’ve ever wished you could promote your work on television but have no idea where to begin—or you’re too intimidated to try—then this workshop is for you. Hear from a former broadcast journalist turned NC romance writer who has had success on both sides of the camera. From deciding how and when to make a contact, to prepping for an on-camera interview, to utilizing the finished product to keep your message going, you’ll learn how to maximize your chances of securing a segment on air. We’ll also talk about print opportunities as well.

NOTE: A recording will be available for one week after the event.
