“This course exceeded my expectations. It was very in depth, which is great and there is so much information.
I will need to keep re-visiting the material when I am in the position of dealing with the actual publishing process of
my book. I do believe the advice and expertise will be very valuable. I appreciate all this course has to offer.”

Inside Publishing: What You Need to Know to Get Published concentrates on helping you understand how publishing works, and how to get your book published.

“If you're serious about publishing, do the course, particularly as you can go back and access
the more technical aspects at the appropriate time. Thank you Australian Writers' Centre.”
