Self-Promotion Isn’t Selfish

As Christians who write, we often wrestle with sharing our work without feeling prideful. This workshop reframes self-promotion as faithful stewardship, making your God-given words available to the readers who need them. Together we’ll explore practical tools for building a presence with integrity: showing up authentically on social media, starting a simple email newsletter, and creating a website that works for you. We’ll also cover book-specific strategies such as launch teams, events, giveaways, pre-order deals, and self-publishing promotion. Whether you’re brand new or seasoned, you’ll leave equipped to share your writing confidently, humbly, and purposefully for Kingdom impact.
