Dawn Brotherton, author and publisher, will share her experiences and lessons learned as she made her way through the publishing process.
What is the difference between self-publishing, vanity press, indie publishing, and traditional publishing?
What are some of the pros and cons of each? Which one is right for you? What types of questions should you ask when looking for a publisher? What should you be wary of? This workshop will allow for open discussion, questions, and idea exchange.
Dawn Brotherton set up Blue Dragon Publishing as a small publishing office to help writers get a jump start on their careers and realize their dreams. She is an Air Force colonel, a wife, a mother of two, a Girl Scout leader, and the author of five books. Dawn started out writing The Obsession, a mystery that was based on true events that happened during her days as a young lieutenant in the Air Force. She embellished the story, adding murders to beef up the plot. After that, her writers encouraged her to write a sequel in the Jackie Austin Mysteries, Wind the Clock. She is currently working on the third and final for Jackie. Dawn is excited to turn to youth fiction with the Lady Tigers’ Series. Trish’s Team is her first youth fiction story.
