4 Million Reasons To Self-Publish Online Author Workshop by H.M. Ward

2Welcome

Get ready! It’s finally here! H.M. Ward’s online author workshop!

DATE: March 22nd, 2014

TIME: 2pm EST – 3pm EST

LOCATION: Online – this is a webinar/ online workshop

COST: $49 (100% of your payment for this workshop is being donated to NOW I LAY ME DOWN TO SLEEP, an early infancy non-profit organization that helps grieving families with infant loss). I’m paying the payment processing fees, webinar costs, and anything else that comes up myself.

I’ve been asked to speak all over the place this year, and decided this is an easy and inexpensive way to hold a world-wide workshop for authors without ever leaving your living room.

About me:

  • H.M. Ward has sold 4 MILLION books since her debut novel released in 2011.
  • Her novel DAMAGED: THE FERRO FAMILY was the #1 bestselling Indie Kindle Direct Publishing and CreateSpace title of 2013.
  • DAMAGED: THE FERRO FAMILY was the #14 bestselling title on Amazon of 2013.
  • In 2013 alone Ward had 11 different titles on the NEW YORK TIMES bestsellers list.
  • She is a NEW YORK TIMES, WALL STREET JOURNAL, & USA TODAY bestselling author.
  • Her readership has grown to a social reach of over 20 million people.
  • H.M. Ward became a full time writer less than a year after her first novel appeared on the market.
  • THE ARRANGEMENT is her bestselling series of new adult romance serials about the eldest Ferro brother, Sean.
  • H.M. Ward has been a top 100 Amazon author every month of 2013.
  • On average in 2013 she released a new title every 2.5 weeks.

If you haven’t attended an online workshop before, it has audio – you’ll hear me speaking, and you can see my computer screen. If you want to ask questions, there’s a place to type them in. It works really well.

The content of this workshop will be based on the feedback given by the registrants. From speaking with many people, it sounds like we’ll be talking about how to increase readership and marketing techniques. During the first part of the workshop I’ll talk and address the info you sent in prior to the workshop, then we’ll switch to a Q&A format. I think that will be the most productive way to do things. It should give you information that you can run out and use right away, which is a big deal.

You are welcome to attend whether you have published or are getting ready to publish your first book. :) I’m obviously happy about self-publishing, so everything will have that slant. Yeah Indie writers!

Before the workshop, you will get log in information so you can attend this event online. Have I mentioned this event is online? :)

Click the button below to register. Please note that seats are non-refundable. There are a VERY limited number of slots. In the event of a cancellation on my part, you will be refunded in full.

Please respect that THIS EVENT IS FOR AUTHORS ONLY.

Last time I hosted this workshop it sold out in 2 hours, so grab a seat now if you want to attend.

NEW RELEASE! THE PROPOSITION 2: THE FERRO FAMILY

Description:

By NEW YORK TIMES Bestselling Author H.M. Ward

Blackmail. Sex. Ferro.

There’s no doubt in my mind that Bryan Ferro is serious–if I don’t sleep with him, he’ll destroy me. Everything I’ve earned will be blown away like dust, and my life will no longer be my own. His demand for just one night rolls into days. He doesn’t want me for a one-time fling, it’s more than that.

But as I stand there, ready to tell him off, I hear it. The familiar sound, the hesitation, the slight hitch in his voice, and that’s what forces me to my knees. It’s not Neil, Maggie, or even the money–it’s Bryan.

Genre: New Adult Romance
This story unfolds over 5 volumes approx. 125 pages each.

GRAB THE PROPOSITION 2 TODAY AT THESE RETAILERS!

A Note About ARCs

Copyright message conceptA NOTE ABOUT ARCs. This makes me sad, but I don’t know if I’m going to offer ARCs anymore and here’s why. A cardinal rule was broken–someone took the ebook and posted it online, which is a horrible thing to do. It’s pirating, and it’s NOT legal to distrube free copies. ARC ebooks were for ‘your eyes only’ which was exclicitly stated.

Guys, I’ve been thinking about how to handle this. I know who did it, and, yes, I could post their name and publically yell at this person, but that doesn’t fix the problem. Other authors have stopped giving eARCs all together. I really didn’t want to punish the good people because of a few bad folks, but this has happened more than once.

Distrubing ARCs is a lot of work and is a nice thing to do for fans who love my books and want to leave reviews, but when stuff like this happens it leaves me wondering if I should continue to offer them. So, I’m giving it another chance and changing the way my ARCs are done. Keep an eye out.

And if you see someone posting an author’s book online for free, tell them that they are a complete asshat and that copyright fines are freakin’ expensive (up to $250,000). If you’d like to see more info on copyright, please visit: http://www.copyright.gov.
