Great recommendations and includes my proposal, the New Author Platform, that I hope to do with Debbie Stier of HarperCollins and Andres Glusman of Meetup. There are so many great internet platform tools now that authors can take advantage of in building their brands and we’ll explore them all.
SXSW Interactive’s Panel Picker is up and running and, sadly, none of mine are there because I failed to submit anything before the deadline! (Been kind of busy planning another conference you might have heard of…)
Nevertheless, I’m planning to attend whether I’m participating on a panel or not, and I’ve found a handful-plus related to publishing that look interesting enough to vote for with the caveat that the final panelists could change my mind:
- 21st Century Publishing Models: Turning Tradition Upside-Down
- +5 Sword of ePublishing: Lessons from Tabletop RPGs
- Why New Authors Should Think Like Indie Bands
- How You Can Survive the E-Book Revolution
- The New Author Platform
- A World Without Serendipity
- Not My Job: The Ultimate Content Strategy Smackdown
- And a whole bunch of Transmedia
Check ‘em out and add your votes!
