The focus of our business is to support authors and their amazing talent!

The brain child of noted author and author mentor Judith Briles, AuthorU (for University), is a community of writers and authors, both online and in real time, who support, teach, share, and encourage each other. The AuthorU Extravaganza is an annual event held each year in Ms. Briles’ hometown of Denver, where emerging authors and writers are able to come face-to-face with giants in the publishing industry. At the Extravaganza, novice authors learn many of the secrets of the book publishing business, as well as the steps to success in self-publishing and book marketing.

“The focus of our business, and my life, is to support authors and their amazing talent with the promotion of their books,” said Jeffrey Keen, President and CEO of USA Book News. “Because Judith Briles and AuthorU serve the same goal, I felt it only right and proper to support her in her efforts to educate and empower emerging writers with a sponsorship of the Extravaganza.”

The AuthorU Extravaganza is a three day event filled with seminars and workshops designed to support emerging authors with invaluable information from experts in traditional book marketing, traditional book publishing, alternative book marketing, book promotion, self-publishing, online book promotion, the world of independent publishing, and a great deal more.

  • Joan Stewart, the Publicity Hound
  • Daniel Hall, the webinar king
  • Stephanie Barko, top literary publicist
  • Joel Comm, social media and marketing pioneer
  • Plus, a dozen other publishing and book professionals

The AuthorU Extravaganza will include seminars and workshops on a wide variety of topics that are critical to the success of emerging authors and writers, as well as established authors seeking guidance through the changing world of contemporary book publishing. Among the many important topics that will be shared with the attendees of the 2014 Extravaganza, these and more critical topics on 21st Century publishing will be discussed:

  • Make Your Website Do the Work: The 6 Site Must-Haves to Sell More Books, AMBER LUDWIG
