Entangled Publishing Launch & Savvy Authors Summer Symposium

Today I'm celebrating the official launch of a new independent publishing house, Entangled Publishing. Anyone familiar with the Savvy Authors website will immediately recognize most of the names heading this exciting addition to the book world. These are some of the hardest-working people out there, and they know their stuff when it comes to book markets. It’s nice to see fresh faces on the scene who aren’t afraid to shake things up and develop new models for success.

Entangled is offering a wide range of titles, and judging by the line-up so far, it’s going to be a fantastic beginning. There are several events scheduled this week to kick things off, including a scavenger hunt on Friday and a live chat tonight at Coffee Time Romance & More. Go to the Entangled website and browse today’s releases, buy them up, and dive right in.

Back to Savvy Authors and their Summer Symposium event, August 24-28th. Last year I spent practically the entire long weekend in my pajamas, scarfing ice cream, attending workshops and chats, and meeting a bunch of great people. It was loads of fun and I learned plenty of new writing tips and tricks. This year’s schedule looks amazing already; the only problem is that I’ll be away on vacation for most of it.

I leave for beautiful San Francisco on August 25th, so until then I plan to encourage everyone I can to sign up and enjoy the Symposium in my stead. Register here, and I expect to hear all about it when I return. The entire event is free for premium members, so now's the perfect time to join the site.

Congratulations to the team at Entangled Publishers and best of luck with today's launch! And many thanks to the wonderful Savvy Authors crew for putting together another amazing online writer's conference. I wish I was able to attend, but there's always next year...

  1. I agree, the Savvy Symposium is an excellent learning opportunity. I did it last year too. Need to look at the new offerings. Glad for your reminder!

  2. Marsha - The list of events is pretty incredible so far. It's gonna be a blast and I'm so bummed that I have to miss it. Get me a souvenir, LOL.

  3. I've already signed up, but I'm off on holiday not long afterward and my to-do list is already freaky long. Have you visited San Francisco before? It's such a fun city.

  4. Hi Shelley! This will be my second visit to SF, but last time was for my SIL's wedding. Hoping to have more free-style fun this trip. Have a blast at the Symposium :-)

  5. I also did the symposium last year and am still referring back to lessons and notes. Filled my dance card to the margins and am looking forward to all the new input. The coolest thing for me is that many of the workshops answer questions I've just begun asking. Very savvy of them to be able to read my mind like that :-)

    Also, blessings on the new journey to the Entangled gang! Attended their webinar on indie publishing and was impressed at the depth of knowledge. I'd already been impressed with their editorial expertise. Looking forward to seeing them rise with this endeavor as high as they have with Savvy.

    Huzzah!
