The Orange County Christian Writers Guild had a wonderful speaker at the May 5 meeting.  Sara Johnson, of Orange, is publisher of seven books and working on her eighth.  The above “Leaving Bennet Behind” series is the first of 3 out of 5 books.  Johnson sells her books internationally and receives royalties from England, India, and Japan just to name a few.  She shared that she is very popular in India.
Writing runs in Johnson’s family.  Her father was a writer, her mother an aspiring writer and her brother is an Editor for a publishing company.  Johnson offered great advice on Self-Publishing.  She said that today the self-publishing world is much easier than it used to be but there are still things one needs to do to sell ones book.   The information was interesting especially the Public Domain information.  Each person at the Guild got a different treasured nugget they could take home and apply to their situation.  She welcomes people to e-mail her about any questions they might have at sarah.johnson.jaff@gmail.com. Please join us next month on the second Tuesday, June 9th, 2015 at 6 p.m. at The Brown Hearing Center, 105 Camellia, Orange. Sarah will be sharing more information with us.
