This will be our second hybrid meeting, one with a Zoom option for those who can’t attend in person.

With twenty-plus years in the publishing industry, editor and author Lee Warren shares his unique insights into what not to do when submitting a manuscript to an editor. Lee published traditionally before choosing to become an indie author. He has edited for publishers, newspapers and websites. In this workshop, you’ll glean information that will enhance your publishing knowledge and strengthen your work so your editor can focus more on your content to make it shine.
Lee Warren is a contemplative writer of devotional books, essay books, and Christian novels that inspire readers to appreciate the present moment and think about eternity. He has written 19 books and hundreds of articles for newspapers and magazines. As a contract editor for publishers, he has helped dozens of writers shape their work. In his free time, Lee enjoys sports, books, and coffee shops.

We welcome you to explore our Facebook page.

The path to self-publishing a book can be a rocky road with detours and pot holes along the way. There are challenges, for sure, but there are benefits, as well.
Nebraska author Nancy Wagner (writing under the pen name N. L. Sharp) has discovered both as she has traveled that path in the publication of her books and the books of her co-publishers.
In this presentation, Sharp will share tips and resources that she has found beneficial on her journey, and will provide participants with a step-by-step checklist to help them travel their own bumpy path to literary success.

Bonus: Nancy will also share about her Go Big Read initiative.

Nancy Sharp Wagner is a children’s author from Fremont. She has self-published several books under the pen name N. L. Sharp and co-published several books with other authors through her independent publishing house, Prairieland Press.

These books include the the former Nebraska Golden Sower nominee Effie’s Image (N. L. Sharp) and the former Nebraska Center for the Book Award winners The Flower Girl, The Ring Bear: A Flip-Over Book (N. L. Sharp), Keeping Captain (N. L. Sharp), The Ghost Juggler (Nona Morrison), and George and the Stolen Sunny Spot (Kristin Ganoung).

Please join us for an enlightening evening.

After the meeting we’ll gather for our relaxed Afterglow chat session at Village Inn, 7837 Dodge St.

We meet the fourth Thursday of the month
6:00-7:45pm at the W. Clarke Swanson Library.

The meeting room is on the basement level. Park on the east side of the building and walk into the lower door.
