Ditching iUniverse, Going in a New Publishing Direction for “She”
I wrote my second book — my first novel She — during National Novel Writing Month last November, revised it and got reader feedback and revised it again during Christmas and January, and then I had to decide: head down the traditional road this time and seek an agent or go back to iUniverse? It…

Recently, I’ve been seeing more and more writers holding virtual events. Unlike traditional book launches or book signings, which only people local to the venue can attend, these events are held online where anyone, anywhere in the world can attend.
