BAIPA board member Judy Baker will be writing/crowdsourcing her book at the February 24 meeting of the Bay Area Consultants Network — working with Mitchell Levy, founder of AHAthat.

Mitchell Levy, founder of AHAthat

The idea is that with the help of your colleagues, you learn how to write a non-fiction book in eight hours or less. This is primarily aimed at consultants who want to generate more business, with their book serving as their calling card, demonstrating their skill and experience.

You don’t even have to know in advance what you’re going to write about.

BACN meets February 24, 7:30 am – 9:45 am, at The Club at McInnis Park Golf Center, 350 Smith Ranch Rd, San Rafael. Meetings are $40 in advance, $45 at the door.

See more at BACN.

 

Becky Parker Geist, BAIPA President, CEO of Pro Audio Voices Inc and AMPlify Audiobooks

One of my favorite things about BAIPA is its culture of generosity, the willingness — even eagerness — to share what we have each learned in the process of bringing stories to life. We provide educational programs, networking, marketing opportunities, encouragement, and information on industry vendors and services. And lots of one-on-one advice and mentoring.

We welcome all who have an interest in making connections within the world of independent publishing and learning more about how to publish and sell their work successfully. Together we are raising the standard of independent publishing and helping our members thrive.

Do join us!

—Becky Parker Geist, BAIPA Board of Directors, President
