by Roseanna M. White & David J. White

Writers … it’s time to become successful authors.

Are you just getting started on your writing journey? Or maybe you already have a book (or ten!) out there, but you need to up your marketing game?

This is the place for you, and we’re so glad you’re here!

Writing is a journey…
take the next step with us.

Marketing. It isn’t a bad word, I promise.

Many writers hate being told they need a platform, and the thought of actually selling what they write makes them break out in hives. But you know what? When you’re doing it right, it not only isn’t a chore, it’s a JOY. (I’m not kidding!) “Marketing” is just about building relationships with people like you. People you can serve in a unique way. People just waiting for the stories you have to tell or the wisdom you have to impart. Explore our articles and classes and learn how!

WHO WE ARE

Classes for Writers is run by Roseanna and David White, a husband and wife team who have experience with just about every aspect of the publishing industry. Roseanna is a bestselling, Christy-Award winning author with dozens of books in print from the Christian publishing industry’s biggest publishers, and David is a marketing expert and publisher at the small press they started in 2005, WhiteFire Publishing.

So why take our classes and courses? Why listen to our marketing advice?

Because we are NOT just marketing or PR professionals trying to sell something to authors without ever having done it ourselves, with our own books. We actually DO THIS and make a living from it. We write the books. We edit them. We design them. We publish them. We market them.

These classes and courses and systems aren’t something we came up with to try to sell to authors. It’s something we came up with to BECOME successful authors; and something we then put into words so we could help other authors do the same.

ARTICLES
