I'm back! Getting ready for tonight's event...
I'm back from Art Unraveled, and our little vacation. I have lots of pictures to post, and I promise I'll do that soon! This week has been really busy, integrating back into life at home, sending out several newsletters (the newest Artellagram, PassionPoetry newsletter, and Cruise News for Members) and planning for the "Getting Published" Panel Discussion, which is tonight.
At the final hour, I decided I wanted to open up the "Getting Published" panel to everyone, and not just Members, because it's going to be so great. There are seven amazing authors on the panel, all of whom are very special to me, both because of their work and because of just who they are.
- Kathy Cano Murillo, author of five books, including Crafty Chica's Art de la Soul (Rayo/HarperCollins), and La Casa Loca (Rockport)
- Janice Taylor, author of Our Lady of Weight Loss (Studio)
- Jill Badonsky, author of The Nine Modern Day Muses (and a Bodyguard) (Penguin) and the forthcoming The Awe-manac: A Daily Guide to Creative Brilliance and Agelessness (Running Press)
- Karen M. Jones, author of The Difference A Day Makes (New World Library)
- Dan Gremminger, co-author of Deep River Dark, a self-published children's book
- Constance Bates, author of Supping On Roses, a small press poetry compilation
- Alicia Forest, successful e-publisher via her Web site, ClientAbundance.com
I'm also really excited because we're trying out a whole new system for this event, where people can either just call in and listen, or attend a full Webinar, with visuals, and the ability to type their questions while they listen. It's been a bit complicated to set up, but I think it's going to be work out terrifically.
Anyway, it's tonight, free and it's going to be really neat, so if you're interested, sign up here to get instructions.
So that's what I've been busy doing...
More about my trip, soon!
