Fall Classes and a New Service for Authors

Summer or maybe it’s winter where you’re at…whatever the season, it’s winding down and it’s time to get back to work or school or your usual routine.

For me, that’s working on new stories and teaching.

I thought I’d share with you what I’m teaching this fall and the new service I’ve added and what I’ll be doing in 2025.

First up, the classes I’m teaching

All these classes are two week, taught through e-mail, yes, the lessons come to you, no set time or day for you-

First one is Promoting You and Your Brand-

I’ll be posting reminders and links again for each month and please reach out to me if you have any questions.

You might have noticed that I’ve added more classes on promotion which leads me into what I’ll be doing in 2025 and the new service I added.

I’ve had more students tell me they’re struggling to promote and market their books, or they’re buying ads and getting zero sales. As I’m a former publicist and worked most of my career in public relations, they reached out for help.

It got me thinking that maybe I needed to refocus so next year all the classes I’ll be teaching will be about marketing and promotion. I’ve also started a marketing and public relations service Flynn Media, check it out at www.flynnmedia.agency to get all the details. I’ll also be blogging there in the coming weeks where I’ll share marketing tips. If you’re interested in the service or know someone who might be, feel free to contact me at flynnmedia@protonmail.com

And you might be wondering if I’ll be giving up teaching writing classes. While I won’t be teaching in my current format, I will have and always have my self paced classes, workbooks and journals.

Will I still be coaching aspiring authors? That’s a yes too, but for now my main focus, besides my own writing, is the marketing and public relations service.

Here’s to having a great productive fall (or spring) and be sure to stay turned for more posts, interviews and market news.

Happy writing and promoting to you all.
