The Portsmouth Authors Collective supports local authors in promoting and selling their books in a variety of ways. We organise regular market stalls in and around the city where authors can place their books for sale. Our social media platforms are a way of sharing knowledge and information about publishing, and promoting opportunities for selling books. Our monthly Speak Volumes events give authors the chance to develop public speaking skills and share their books with a friendly and supportive audience. We also host the weekly Portsmouth Authors Collective Book Club on Victory Online Radio, where we interview local authors about their books. Since our launch in 2022, the Collective has helped Portsmouth and area authors to sell over 1000 books. If you are traditionally published or self-published and you have a book to sell, you're welcome to join us!
