ReplyDeleteWe desperately want you on panels again... I dropped you an email too. With everything changing in publishing since we started the conference it is mind blowing.
Oh and the full announcement is not up yet, but we were doing online safety as part of the BBPOC, but I got a speaker so amazing that I have taken it out and will be setting a time the week after Conference.
She specializes in all the things we should be doing and are probably not. I thought it was so important for everyone to learn that it is open to all outside the conference. If you do not attend the BBPOC though we are asking for a $5 donation.
So excited to be working in publishing these days!
Terry Kate
Book Bloggers and Publishers Online Conference
Hey Terry, I would be happy to participate. It's always enjoyable and I see a whole new raft of topics this year I am anxious to attend. Look forward to reconnecting with you and my fellow bloggers. See you there.
