Next Meeting
Date/Location:
We are NOT meeting at The Maitland Public Library, 6:30 to 8:30, Thursday August 8th. The date and time will be the same, but not the location. Instead, it will be a Zoom meeting. Representatives of Acron Publishing, located in San Diago, CA will do a presentation on:

Demystifying Publishing Options
The road to publication involves understanding what your publishing options are. Writers often have a single-minded dream of selling their projects to traditional publishers and becoming bestselling authors. In reality, there are many other options, and it can be overwhelming to understand where your book would find its best fit in the publishing spectrum.
To help you sort this out, Holly Kammier will discuss the pros and cons of the five main publishing options today:
Traditional Publishing
Small Publishers
Self-Publishing
Vanity Press
Hybrid Publishing
Gaining a working understanding of the range of publishing options will facilitate reaching your goal of successful publication.
​
When we get closer to the meeting date, they'll send me a Zoom link, and I'll send it to everyone via email. I hope you'll join us.
