Evolving for Profit: The Indie Author’s Path to Sustainable Success

Audience: All Levels

In this inspirational keynote to kick off SelfPubCon2024, Alliance of Independent Authors Director, Orna Ross, explores how indie authors can evolve from passion to profit by taking ownership of their current conditions, character, and mindset.

Drawing from her own experience with fiction, poetry, and the ALLi nonfiction titles, as well as her observations of a wide variety of ALLi members, Orna will reveal how self-publishers can unlock financial success through diverse publishing streams—selling direct, using crowdfunder platforms like Kickstarter, and offering direct sales and subscriptions to readers, as well as selling books on a variety of platforms.

But publishing is never easy and this session delves into personal accountability, the evolutionary nature of growth, and how authors can consciously evolve in ways that help them to reach their creative and commercial goals, through honing intentions, aligning energy, and continually refining their approach to writing and publishing.
