Saturday, August 26--Everything You've Wanted to Know about Book Covers (Zoom meeting)
Stacy Sowers, a native West Virginian and tech-geek, will will provide advice and insights into your many choices for obtaining a cover that helps sell your book, including outsourcing the design or doing it yourself.
After a long career spanning over twenty-years in technology with companies across the United States–from Fortune 500’s to small local non-profits–Stacy pursued her lifelong dream of publishing. But she found a great need in the indie-author community... author-tech and coaching services at realistic and reasonable prices... one she was uniquely qualified to help with. Now, Stacy spends her time writing under several pennames with 20+ books published.
