Every few weeks Dan Blanchard, President of the APSS-Connecticut chapter, holds a "Coffee with Dan" event to talk with chapter members. Here is a well-attended recent event, and more are scheduled regularly. 

“It's not creative unless it's sells,” goes the advertising line. You can have the greatest idea in the world but if you can't sell it you won't get very far. What are three reasons that someone else would want your content? What benefits does it provide? What does it promise? What problem(s) does it solve? How can you make your idea more attractive to other people?

Find a craft show close to you at which you could exhibit your books. Team up with other nearby APSS members to share the costs. See a list of shows by state here: http://www.artscraftsshowbusiness.com/

"We thought our author book had to be hardcover because it makes a great gift. You showed us that it’s also a practical guide and, in softcover form, makes a great membership incentive for publishing organizations. That first bulk sale was exciting!"

“If you can’t fit the idea of your story into one simple sentence, you don’t understand your story.”
