At our October meeting, we launched a new element of our monthly meeting — an opportunity for authors to announce an upcoming book launch. Instead of the 15 seconds during the introduction, you get two minutes. You can only take advantage of this once a year. It’s great practice for your elevator pitch.
In the BAIPA blog, however, you have more opportunities. Anytime you have a book coming out, a reading, an award, any book news, any interesting information that you think might benefit other BAIPA members, let us know. Send it to webmaster@baipa.org.

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
