Phoenix Publishing & Book Promotion Meetup
Our regular venue is Spoke & Wheel Tavern, 8525 N. Central Avenue, in Phoenix. We typically meet the 2nd Saturday at 1 p.m. and the 4th Tuesday at 6:30 p.m., but sometimes this changes, so check the actual Meetup announcements.About Phoenix Authors
This blog is a group effort, undertaken by a few of the members of the Phoenix Publishing & Book Promotion Meetup. Each contributor has agreed to publish one blog post per month, on all aspects of their writing. Though a post may not seem germane to the the subject of books, rest assured that all topics are welcome, as our authors explore their books, the life's work that led them to write their books, their audiences, their own challenges and successes, and their literary inspirations, among other topics.
Please be aware that each post represents only the opinion of its writer and is not reflective of the group as a whole, or of Laura Orsini, the Meetup organizer.
We welcome your polite feedback! And if you're in Phoenix, please stop by our Meetup (generally the second Saturday and fourth Tuesday of the month) to say hello!Reach Us
