"Print-On-Demand Publishing: Perks and Perils,"
with Ken Kister Is there a book in you -- but not the desire to run the gauntlet of traditional publishing? Are you leery of "vanity presses"? Noted librarian/author Ken Kister has recently experienced a third alternative: print-on-demand publishing. Ken is one of North America's best-known reviewers of reference and information materials. He has authored numerous books, including buying guides for libraries, a biography, and most recently, "FLORIDA ON THE BOIL: Recommended Novels and Short-Story Collections Set in the Sunshine State." Ken will share his experiences in publishing, and advice for would-be authors seeking to avoid the hassles of dealing with agents, editors and peer-review! And there will be time for your questions and comments. |
