March 28-30 2008 - Spring Book Show Seminars - Atlanta, GA
Posted on: Wed, 26 Mar 2008 12:41:00 +0000

As part of its responsibility as the designated small press representative for the 2008 Spring Book Show at the Georgia World Congress Center, Anvil Publishers, and its flagship Southern Review of Books newsletter, have organized three seminars to help aspiring writers and publishers.

According to Southern Review editor Noel Griese of Tucker, seminar attendees get free admission to the three-day Spring Book Show held in Hall B of the Georgia World Congress Center in downtown Atlanta. Normal admission is $50. Vendors at the show will be offering more than 50,000 titles to hundreds of buyers from around the world.

Seminar 1, Griese said, is a two-day event entitled "Writing, Editing, Publishing and Marketing Your Book." Instruction will take place March 28-29, and is designed to familiarize students with the latest information on writing and selling books, with emphasis on marketing. Among the 18 scheduled presenters are Ed Nawotka, southern correspondent, Publishers Weekly, and book columnist, Bloomberg News; Ahmad Meradji, CEO, Apex Book Manufacturing (short-run four-color digital book manufacturer of Alpharetta, Ga.); Chris Staros, award-winning graphic novels publisher from Marietta, Ga.; and John Shableski of Maryland-based Diamond Book Distributors.

Seminar 2 is a one-day March 29 workshop entitled "How To Prepare Your Book for the Market: Writing a Killer Proposal and Editing the Manuscript for Maximum Marketability." Instructors are Patricia Fry, executive director of California-headquartered Small Publishers, Artists and Writers Network (SPAWN) and local award-winning book doctor Bobbie Christmas. Fry, the author of more than 25 books on writing and publishing, including several of the latest books on proposal-writing, will also critique proposals written by local authors seeking to sell their manuscripts.

Seminar 3, scheduled for March 28, is a one-day practical workshop on "Earning a Comfortable Living through Freelance Writing and Self-Publishing." Instructors are Peter Bowerman, author of the best-selling "Well-Fed Writer" and "Well-Fed Self-Publisher" books, and Angela Durden, local children?s book author and business consultant.
