Time for a little pub banter

How do you get a book published? Sue Fagalde Lick will offer the nuts-and-bolts answers in “Book Publishing 101” at 6:30 pm on Monday, Feb. 22 at the joint meeting of Willamette Writers’ Coast and Corvallis chapters. The meeting will be presented via Zoom. 

Lick, author of 11 published books, will discuss the differences between traditional publishing, hybrid publishing and self-publishing, how to approach each one, and how to decide which path is right for your book. With experience in all three methods of publishing, she will share the advantages and disadvantages of each method and the hard truths about money, sales and marketing.

A longtime journalist in the California Bay Area, Lick earned her MFA in creative nonfiction from Antioch University Los Angeles at the age of 51. She has published many articles, essays and poems since she moved to Oregon in 1996. Co-chair of the Coast Chapter of Willamette Writers and vice president of Oregon Poetry Association, she lives with her dog Annie in South Beach.
