FOR THE NON-PUBLISHED: Spend a day, check out the speakers and attend as many of the lectures as you can. I believe a day pass is $75.00 and can be purchased on-line. You will gather important information about the industry.
- Find books in the genre you would like to publish. Look at the books that are being promoted by publishers. Look at format and cover art, font size and layout.
- Go home and Google all aspects of creating a book, for example, graphics. The Internet is a vast resource.
- I didn’t see much in the way of agents, but I wasn’t looking for them. One way to check into agents is to go to the library, find some books in your genre, look at the acknowledgement page. Authors often mention their agents. Agents have websites with submission guidelines.
