Curious how to turn your voluminous novels into a money-making book that anyone can buy—without going through a publisher (and extra aggravation)? Our Writer’s Resources meetup last week hosted self-publishing gurus Catharine Bramkamp, writing coach and author of a dozen books, and Mila Johansen, public speaker and author of twenty-two plays and two books, for a self-publishing boot camp.
