We invite you to join us in a very special evening. Come and ask a question, any question, and Judith will provide answers. This may sound absurdly simplistic yet using this format, Judith's ability to offer hugely valuable and sage answers to questioners has time and time again shifted perspective, altering familiar landscapes and revealing hidden wisdom and much greater depth of understanding in answer to the question.
Judy Piatkus says "I was privileged to share a similar experience with Judith. It felt so special and so profound that I asked Judith if she would come and offer it to ConsciousCafe members. I was so thrilled when she said yes! "

ConsciousCafe is delighted to present our popular publishing workshop for the third year with a panel of knowledgeable experts. We will be offering you the opportunity to find out how the industry works and what you need to do to find the right publishing house for your book.
Have you ever wanted to write a book? Or perhaps you have already started? But do you know how to go about getting your work published when you have written it? Or better, do you know how to find a publisher who will give you a contract and an advance payment before you have written it?
The publishing industry is sophisticated and complex and there is much that you need to know in order to get your book out there so that it finds its way to the right readers.
Should you look for a traditional publisher – and which publishing house would be the right one? Do you need an agent? How do you approach a publisher or an agent? What do they want to see from you?
Do you want to spend the time offering your work to different companies and wait for them to reply? Or would you rather control the whole process and publish your work yourself? If so, how do you go about it – and what will it cost?
And what is the most important thing that publishers want to know before they make you an offer?
Come and find out the secrets of the publishing industry from our panel of experts. Whether you want to write non-fiction or novels, we will be able to encourage and help you to find the right approach for your work.
Date: Monday 8th April
Time: 6.30 pm – 8.30 pm
Location: Steiner House, 35 Park Road, London NW1 6XT (1 minute from Baker Street station)
