Our Mission
Author University is a community dedicated to creating profitable authors. Depending on each author's ability and the opportunities available to them, they may not always get traditionally published. What we aim to do is to help authors understand the pros and cons of each publishing path based on their unique situation. We then offer advice, resources and training to help their author career be as profitable as possible.
What do we do and who do we help?
Author University is not trying to create more interest in writing a book or to make writing a more sought-after career path. What we are trying to achieve is to help those who are already into writing or publishing books create a sustainable career path.
Our resources
- Traditional publishing opportunities: No-fee submissions to publishers who bear the cost of publishing and marketing (and potentially pay advances, too)
- Paid writing opportunities: For magazines, news outlets, blogs and more
- Funding opportunities: Awards, contests/competitions, grants/scholarships
- Being a better author: Learn to write better, market more effectively, etc
- Resources and updates: Product/service recommendations and publishing industry updates
