Join Lancaster Christian Writers on Saturday, October 21st, 2017, in welcoming back Dr.
Amy Deardon at Lancaster
Alliance Church, 210 Pitney Rd
(off Hwy 30 across from Costco) from 9:30AM-12 noon (registration opens at 9).
Publisher, author, entrepreneur, Dr. Amy
Deardon has become the go-to expert in indie publishing, teaching clinics and
workshops on the topic at numerous writers conferences, including our own. This
time she joins us to share cutting-edge new tech developments that can help YOU
become your own publisher excellently, economically, effectively, and with
expedited promptness.
SPEAKER: Dr. Amy Deardon is an award-winning author, publisher, and online entrepreneur who began her own indie publishing service because she'd seen too many authors falling into the costly pitfalls of self-publishing, hybrid, or even traditional publishing companies. She is eager to help writers take their words to the next level through story or nonfiction coaching/editing and guiding them through the indie-publishing minefield. In her life B.C. (before children) Amy was a Ph.D. scientist under a different name who did bench research. She lives with her husband and two children near Washington D.C. Visit her website at www.amydeardon.com.
WORKSHOP: “BECOMING YOUR OWN PUBLISHER”. This workshop showcases the difference between paying thousands of dollars to and receiving often minimal profits from a self-publishing or hybrid company and truly becoming your own publisher. Keep all rights and profits while you design and market your stunning new book—while keeping your costs low. We’ll look at an overview of the indie publishing process including: 1) finding topics that sell; 2) E-books and print books; 3) interior and cover design; 4) marketing ideas. See why indie publishing may work for you. You can do it!
MEETING PLACE: Please note we will be back in our normal meeting place this month, Uptown Theater to the right just inside main doors of church.
CRITIQUE GROUPS: As usual, we will be making time as well for our usual peer critique groups, so if you have that piece you'd like critiqued, bring 10 copies of up to 1500 words.
As always, email questions or concerns to jeanette@jeanettewindle.com
Blessings,
Jeanette Windle
President, Lancaster Christian Writers
