Self-Publishers Online Conference Takes New "Virtual Expo" Approach

With big book publishing houses laying off and cutting back, more people are interested in self-publishing books. Yet because of the economy, fewer people are willing to travel to book industry conferences to learn about publishing. These trends led organizers to create the first virtual self-publishing conference. Connecting entrepreneurial authors with self-publishing resources, the Self-Publishers Online Conference will be held on May 13, 14, 15, 2009.

Sandpoint, ID, April 20, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Because of travel and lodging costs, many aspiring self-publishers are not able to attend big publishing shows in New York City or Los Angeles. SPOC 2009 is a virtual conference which means attendees can attend from the comfort of their own home.

Aspiring authors and self-publishers can attend SPOC when they have time in their schedule. At their convenience, they can wander the virtual exhibit hall, take part in informative teleseminars, and discover helpful information about writing and publishing books.

Logical Expressions President Susan Daffron says, "The Self-Publishers Online Conference is the next best thing to being at a live conference, except without the sore feet and aching back from lugging around brochures and other conference materials all day. Our line-up of speakers is phenomenal. Almost every author of every self-publishing book I own will be at SPOC, plus other amazing experts that have successfully self-published books and developed a platform around them."

SPOC 2009 will feature a total of 15 expert speakers over the three-day event. The experts will discuss a wide range of book publishing and promotion topics. Although speakers are still being confirmed and the line-up is not final, publishing experts Dan Poynter, Shel Horowitz, Brian Jud and Sandra Beckwith have agreed to speak.
