Central to this aim is writers’ ability to serve as their own publishing houses. This course explores specific methods on how aspiring writers self-publish their writing and other content, how they inculcate a digital presence, and strategies for finding/creating/growing a digital audience. For example, we will examine how digital branding works across a variety of self-publishing genres, including reviews (Amazon, Yelp, Facebook), ebooks (Wattpad, Amazon), and online videos (YouTube, Twitter, Twitch). Students will develop an active web presence and write in a variety of contexts. While no previous portfolio of writing is necessary, students are encouraged to bring any writing and other creative endeavors they have previously produced.
