Misadventures in The Publishing Business: A Case-Study-Driven Discussion
Wednesday, February 12

We’d like to think that authors can afford to spend their energy exclusively on writing, but that’s a fantasy. Whether they are independently published or traditionally published, authors must focus on the business of publishing. We’ve all learned this over the course of our careers.

In this interactive talk, Ray Daniel will share the successes and disasters of his career as case studies so that we can learn the business of publishing from each other.

Food and conversation at 6:30.
The meeting proper begins at 7.
