A 6-month anthology experience for authors ready to fully step into their voice, contribute a powerful chapter, and become a published APS author — with education, support, and celebration along the way.
Collaborative Publishing + Author Education
APS Author Mastery ELITE is a guided, collaborative publishing experience for aspiring and emerging authors who are ready to become published authors. Over six months, participants develop and refine one chapter, receive structured author education, and are guided through the publishing process — from concept to celebration.
Over six months, you’ll be supported in:
- Clarifying your chapter focus and connecting it to the overall theme.
- Developing your content with guidance, feedback, and accountability.
- Learning core author skills around branding, marketing, and platform-building.
- Preparing for your role as a co-author — not just for this book, but for future opportunities.
The final anthology is published under APS Publishing. Authors are honored at the Awards Gala, and featured at the Empowerment Expo as part of the official Book Release – celebrating your accomplishment as a published author.
*Space in each ELITE cohort is limited to maintain quality, support, and a strong collaborative experience.*
Is APS Author Mastery ELITE Right for You?
ELITE is ideal if you:
- Have a message, story, or lesson you know you’re called to share.
- Want to become a published author, but prefer a guided, collaborative experience rather than doing it all alone.
- Are willing to commit to the writing, deadlines, and teamwork required to complete a strong chapter.
- Desire education around being an author — not just getting your name on a cover.
If you are further along and want to publish a full, individual book instead of an anthology chapter, Published & Powerful may be a better fit. We’re happy to help you decide.
