This November, we’re excited to shine a light on a remarkable part of our organization—our Authorpreneur community.

What Is an Authorpreneur?
An Authorpreneur is more than just an author. They are writers with an entrepreneurial mindset, individuals who approach their craft as a business and embrace the journey of creating, marketing, and sustaining a body of work. Our community is composed of self-published authors, bloggers, indie publishers, and business-savvy creators who are passionate about building their brands and connecting with their audiences. By taking control of their publishing paths, these writers craft meaningful careers that blend creativity with strategy.
The Heart of Our Community: Collaboration and Growth
At its core, our Authorpreneur community is built on a foundation of collaboration, shared knowledge, and mutual support. We believe that a writer’s journey is best when taken alongside others who understand the unique challenges and joys of authorship. This community offers a wealth of resources, tools, and mentorship opportunities to help each member reach new milestones, regardless of where they are in their journey.
Key offerings include:
- Guest Speaker Sessions: We regularly host accomplished authors, agents, and publishing industry professionals who share their journeys and offer guidance on navigating the world of publishing. Led by experts in writing, editing, marketing, and self-publishing, these workshops give our members actionable insights to apply directly to their work.
- Peer Review and Feedback: Through critique groups and feedback circles, members can share their work in a safe, constructive space, gaining insights that help them refine their projects.
