I noticed this in the national press and thought I would post about it.

Author HQ @ LBF are hosting a number of seminars, events and pitch sessions at the London Book Fair.
Traditionally the fair is for industry professionals but this particular area looks to be aimed squarely at those looking to self publish. (One clue being it is sponsored by Kindle Direct Publishing!)

For your £30 registration fee you can mingle with the exhibitors in the main fair and take part in the Author HQ seminars and workshops. This fee covers all 3 days.

The workshops have such titles as:

• Kindle Direct Publishing:

Bestsellers discuss using Kindle Direct Publishing and CreateSpace to fuel
readership growth.

• Keeping it Short

This session is designed to inform authors about the increasing opportunities around publishing short form fiction and non-fiction.

• eBook Best Practice:

 The do’s and don’ts of writing and publishing an eBook effectively.




The book fair runs over 3 days  (8th, 9th,10th April)  and it looks like Author HQ is repeating their events over the days. Check out the sites for more information.
