What's the protocol for self-promotion? Is there a protocol? Is self-promotion related to networking? The easy answer is yes, but in this episode, Felicity Wren and Max Timm discuss the ins and outs of promoting yourself through contests and film festivals, and why they're so valuable to you and your writing career.

Remember, Felicity Wren and Max Timm always have open Q&A during every Facebook Live broadcast, so you should tune in when they broadcast their next live chat. Even though most broadcasts focus on a particular subject, every writer is welcome to ask anything they like at any time. Felicity and Max will do their best to give you a straight and honest answer.
