How it works

01. Recording

Your book talk will be recorded and shared with all guests after the event. You will also receive the recording for your personal use!

 02. Book Sales

Option 1: Authors can provide a link for guests to order books online. 

Option 2: Bundle the book with the ticket and send signed copies after the event. Authors are responsible for mailing copies and will receive 100% of proceeds from sales.

03. Tickets

Tickets are free for the first 15 guests to encourage people to register! Tickets are $10 per person after that.

04. Cost

Our virtual book talk package is $160 for DWR members and $200 for non-members. 

 

Add-ons:

For an additional $50 you can have DWR social media coach Chelsie Dzbanski cover the event on Instagram stories and tag you so you have instant social posts ready to share!

For an additional $700 we’ll write a press release about the event and distribute it to our local and national media contacts who cover books, arts & entertainment and more.

 
Detroit Writing Room

“I had the pleasure of hosting my first virtual book talk with The Detroit Writing Room, and it was the best decision I made as I was navigating the new author journey. Stephanie guided me every step of the way during the process, and the event exceeded expectations. The Detroit Writing Room is the perfect venue to host your virtual book talks. I can’t wait to do another one!”

“I did a virtual book launch with The Detroit Writing Room in December 2021. Stephanie and her team are wonderful to work with, very supportive, and the whole experience was great. I became a member as well because they provide such a great network of support for all writers and various artists!”
