Friday 4:00 Publishing in Today’s Market: Junior A: How do you decide if you should self-publish, publish traditionally, or use some hybrid of the two? C. Gerrib (M), L. Erlick, N. Litherland, D. Murphy, N. Silk
Friday 5:30-5:55 Reading: Boardroom
Saturday 11:00 Space Seconds: Junior A: Gherman Titov, the second man to orbit the Earth, Apollo 12, the second mission to land on the moon, STS-2, the second flight of the Space Shuttle Columbia. Everyone remembers and talks about the firsts, but what about the brave men who boldly dared to go where only a couple had gone before? C. Gerrib, B. Higgins (M), J. Liss, J. Plaxco, M. Unger
Sunday Noon Self-Publishing Doesn’t Mean Solo Publishing: Lilac A: Just because a book is self-published doesn’t mean that the author hasn’t had help. From editing to cover art to book design to marketing, self-published authors often look for assistance, especially if when they recognize their own weaknesses. C. Gerrib, L. Erlick (M), D. Murphy, R. Neumeier, D. Sjolander
Sunday 1:00 Does a Good Novel Really Need a Plot? Lilac B: Many readers put plot ahead of all else, but novels include much more to a novel: characterization, themes, setting…Can a novel lack a plot and still be a good novel? T. Akers, W. Boyes, P. Eisenstein, C. Gerrib, C. Moore, K. Swails (M)
