BOOK PUBLISHING 1-2-3
Grab a pen and join us for this lively 60-minute session, which is seasoned with stories and tips to empower and inspire writers of all levels. We’ll start with a glance at today’s dynamic book business (including the good, the bad, and the ugly of self-publishing), followed by advice for connecting with editors and literary agents. The “meat” of the session, however, is the buffet of juicy ideas to help writers refine their craft and stretch their creativity.
Presenter: Laurie Gibson (https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurie-gibson-a6b2645), the San Diego–based editor with more than two decades of professional experience serving first-time writers and full-time authors as well as publishing companies and other organizations. For several years, Laurie also taught editing for the Extension programs at both UCSD and UCLA.
