Book Publishing 1-2-3
Laurie Gibson will be presenting the class on book publishing.
Grab a pen and join us for this lively, popular class from 7 to 9 p.m., Tuesday, March 5 where you’ll check out today’s book business (including the good, the bad and the funky of self-publishing), share ideas for connecting with literary agents and editors, suggest how writers can boost their creativity and improve their craft, and wrap up with a few simple tips on promotion. The class takes place at The Ink Spot (Barracks 16, Suite 202, Liberty Station, in Point Loma).
Presenter is Laurie Gibson, who has edited/proofread hundreds of books ranging from those of first-time and self-published writers to those of success guru Brian Tracy and trailblazing novelist Alice Walker (plus other high-profile and bestselling authors). For several years, Laurie taught editing for the Extension programs at both UCSD and UCLA.
More highlights: creative writing prompts, four-page handout, quick case study using “Tracking Gobi Grizzlies” to show how a rumor about a very rare animal leads to an online magazine article and then to an award-winning full-length work of nonfiction.
