The Aptos Library will host a free class on book publishing this month! The Santa Cruz Public Library System has announced it will host a free class about book publishing, led by Laurie Gibson on March 14th from 7:00 to 8:00 PM.
The class is called Book Publishing 1-2-3 and is packed with stories and tips. This lively, popular class will feature a glimpse of today’s dynamic book business – including traditional, electronic, and self-publishing, as well as ideas for finding literary agents and editors, and suggestions for improving craft and connecting with readers. The class will also offer writing prompts, a four-page handout, and time for Q&A.
Santa Cruz Public Libraries support literary artists with a number of writing programs, including Community Poetry Circles, the Aptos Writing Club, and Voces Latinas. Library Director Janis O’Driscoll says “We have a talented community of authors in Santa Cruz, and supporting their work is an important role for the library.”
Presenter Laurie Gibson is an editor who has served more than 150 first-time authors and also edited/proofread 250+ books for numerous publishers, including the 2003 edition of The Color Purple. She has edited the writing of former U.S. Secretary of State George Shultz and success guru Brian Tracy. For nearly a decade, Laurie also taught editing for the Extension programs of both UCSD and UCLA.
If you are unable to make the class in Aptos on March 14, the class will be offered again in May at the Scotts Valley Library.
