Would you like to get published? Are you wondering how to navigate the tricky paths to print? Friend and fellow best-selling author Tom Clavin and I are offering a series of "how to get published" seminars over the coming months. For details and registration, see below.  

OK, you've written the next "Fifty Shades of Grey" or the next "Unbroken." How to you get published? How can you find an agent? Is self publishing or traditional publishing the best route for you? What's really going on in this "new world" of authorship and publishing? Is the digital revolution turning over all the former models? Please join Tom Clavin and I for a three-hour, no-holds-barred discussion of these and other issues relative to the modern world of getting into print. The next seminars are outlined below. You may register by email and pay, in advance, through Paypal or credit card. NOTE: an outline from a recent seminar appears below, so you can get an idea of what we will be discussing.
