Local Author Panel: Self-Publishing for Print and E-Books
October 10, 2023, 3:00-5:00 p.m.
Staunton Public Library, 1 Churchville Ave, Staunton, VA 24401

Have you written a memoir, how-to book or novel but don’t know what to do next? Self-publishing your book can be easier than you think! Join four local authors for a candid discussion on self-publishing for print and e-books and take the next step in getting your story into the hands of readers.

Authors Maggie Duncan, Michelle Tillery-Duval, Allison Garcia and Judith Dreyer will share their experiences self-publishing fiction and non-fiction books. Learn about the avenues for self-publishing, how to assemble a team of editors/designers/beta-readers to support your work and tips and tricks for marketing your self-published book. This is a great opportunity to learn about the process from those who have been there, done that and haven’t written your great American novel quite yet? That’s ok – come meet some local authors and let us inspire you to find a way to share your story.

A Q&A session will follow the panel discussion, so come with questions. After the panel,
authors will be available for additional conversations, and you can purchase their self-published books.
