On Sunday, December 17 from 12-2 p.m., Left Coast Writers® Live on FCCFREE RADIO’s popular show, LilyCat on Stuff, features BAIPA member Barbara McVeigh.
Writer, producer, film maker, activist, and educator, Barbara McVeigh is author of Redemption, How Ronald Reagan Nearly Ruined My Life, a memoir about her father, a federal criminal who was fired by Reagan for his role in the 1981 air traffic controllers’ strike.
She’ll be interviewed by Melinda Adams, a.k.a. LilyCat, and the interview can be heard live or on podcast at LilyCat on Stuff.

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
