Yavonne Butcher will help you learn the difference between self-publishing and traditional publishing, and how to choose the option that's best for you.

Ever wonder where to start when it comes to publishing your written work? Join us for an informational session all about practical publishing for first-time authors! In this program, patrons will learn how to identify the story only you can tell, the difference between self-publishing and traditional publishing, and how to choose. We'll also go over publishing trends such as format, and how to avoid common and costly mistakes.
