A Winning Team: The Author-Publisher Relationship, Sponsored by CLMP
Thursday, March 9, 2023
3:20 pm to 4:35 pm
No book enters the world on its own. Instead, authors and publishers work together to bring out the best in what ultimately becomes the published work. Join us for a conversation with the 2022 Firecracker Award winners in poetry and creative nonfiction to learn about what goes into forging an award-winning relationship between author and publisher.
