📚 Overview

Self-publishing has never been more viable — or more competitive. The authors breaking through in 2026 aren't just writing great books, they're making smart decisions about design and marketing from the start. 

In this special two-day conference, we're bringing together leading voices in the indie publishing world to show you how it's done. Whether you're working on your first book or looking to give your catalogue a shot in the arm, you'll leave with a clear strategy for getting your book into readers' hands.

Day One: From manuscript to finished product, we'll walk you through each stage of the self-publishing process with insights from experts and best-selling indie authors who have achieved success on their own terms.

Day Two: A deeper dive into the strategies that sell books in 2026. Industry leaders and trailblazers share the marketing tactics that have actually driven results.
