2016 Dahlonega Literary Festival – March 12-13

What is North Georgia Authors Guild?

I’m starting a professional group for published authors in the Dahlonega/North Georgia area. Here’s the article that ran in The Dahlonega Nugget:

North Georgia Authors Guild, a newly formed group of published, professional authors, has its second meeting upstairs at Starbucks at 7:30 p.m. Monday, Sept. 8.  Discussion will include how to navigate the complex world of writing, publishing and especially successful marketing of books.

Traditional and independent authors are welcome. The group will be sharing successes as well as featuring regional authors during its regular programs.

I love to talk about the art of writing, the craft of writing and even the dreamy fantasies of writing. That said, crass as it may sound, if an author doesn’t learn and grow the BUSINESS of writing, then writing is just a hobby…and a very expensive hobby at that!photo credit: jessamyn via photopin cc
