Bypassing the traditional Big Five (Four?) publishing houses is easier and more profitable than ever, but what can you really expect if you go the self-publishing route? Is it true only certain genres are successful? Can you make it work on a shoestring, or is it more expensive than traditional publishing? Will your book be available in brick-and-mortar stores? Our experts will shed light on the aspects of self-publishing that have been puzzling you. (This Writing Show was originally scheduled in July, but had to be moved to September.)
Speakers: Hollee Freeman, David Kazzie, and Sharvette Mitchell

Time: 6:00 pm – 8:30 pm Eastern Time
