Everything you need to know about bookstore distribution - upcoming meeting in Chicago (Date to be announced)

The APSS-Chicago chapter is sponsoring a presentation to help you get and benefit from bookstore distribution.

The speaker is Richard T. Williams, Director of Publisher Development for the Independent Publishers Group. He will lead an engaging discussion about publishing for the trade and trade distribution: what it means, what it can do for your publishing program, what you need to do to make your book trade-friendly, how to market and promote for the trade.
