IABS – BOOKS AND PUBLISHING PANEL

Shambhala Publications will have the above and other recent publications at IABS in Toronto for the week of August 21. Please stop by and say hello. Also, Tuesday evening rom 6pm to 7pm, I am also leading a panel that is really a Q&A on publishing that will include Shambhala, Brill, Wisdom, and SUNY. It will cover really any topics on publishing: the process, academic vs trade vs. self- publishing. It’s a great way to find out more about the process, what your options are, and what to expect.
