Whether you're an emerging author or a small business, there's no doubt that personal branding is an important part of getting your name and work out there in today's e-commerce driven world. Local WA photographer, teacher, and writer, Julissa Shrewsbury, founder and director of New Work Photography, is running an intensive Personal Branding workshop on 29 May 2015 from 8.30am to 12.30pm at The West Australian Club in Perth. Having known Julissa for several years and watching her business grow, I can testify that she really knows her stuff and that you will be in good hands at her workshop.
For more details on the workshop, please check out her Personal Branding website. This Sunday, 3 May 2015, is the KSP Writers' Centre Open Day. They have a full program of events, including readings from the centre's writers groups, a special presentation by Nathan Hobby on Katharine Susannah Prichard, a book launch of the Blackboy Hill is Calling Centenary of ANZAC project, a 'pop-up' bookshop and so much more. Please tell anyone interested in investing in or developing their writing to come along to see what we have to offer.
