I just found out about a Vancouver WA author event that I want to share. Elizabeth Lyon is on my personal “must know list” in the publishing world. Writer’s, authors and I want to published writers, you’ll love Elizabeth and her know how speaks for itself.
Event details:
“Stump the Editor” is my final engagement of the year. You and yours are invited. Because I expect many questions to be stumpers, I’ve come prepared: I’m bringing “prizes.” Of one thing I am sure: I am not going home with any of them.
I’ve got a feeling I may need to use the “ask a friend” option; i.e. your presence would serve many purpose–not to mention that you just might have some good questions to toss my direction.
When: 5pm–6:30pm, Saturday December 6th
Where: Cover to Cover Bookstore in Vancouver, WA
Expectations: Buy a book from this bookstore owner–and it need not be any of mine!
Afterwards, join us for nearby for refreshments.
Cheers!
Elizabeth
PS: Did you hear that in the December ‘08 issue of The Writer magazine, contributing editor Chuck Leddy, also a reviewer for The Boston Globe, cites Elizabeth Lyon’s Manuscript Makeover as among the “10 great writing books from ‘08.” He writes: “Perhaps the most comprehensive book yet written on the process of revising fiction.”
