Our 2010 conference was well attended and brought writers information and news of the latest developments in the technological world, as well as expert advice on updated marketing tactics that work. Every talk had a generous question and answer period, and attendees discussed their specific questions and problems with our speakers:
- Donald Lamm explained how traditional publishing has changed
- Sallie Bingham explored whether authors need agents
- Tom Johnson revealed how to be your own publisher
- Ellen Kleiner discussed going global in the foreign rights market
- Benjamin Allison defined copyright developments and the Internet
- Richard Harris clarified what writers need to know about the e-
book revolution - Kirk Ellis described the differences between the book and the screenplay
- Rubina Cohen enumerated Web business strategies for writers
- Dorothy Massey spoke first-
hand about the role of the independent bookstore - James McGrath Morris shared tips about what works when on your own book tour
An added highlight this year was our Exchange Table for authors looking for editors, editors looking for book designers, book designers looking for publishers, publishers looking for publicists—everything a writer needs to publish and thrive.
