We have special guests... I have lined up the coolest list of folks over the next few months... The next event is April 14 📆 ADD TO YOUR CALENDAR 📆 We have been talking to folks on the creation and production side of books... but have you ever wondered how books get chosen to occupy the shelves in bookstores? Ed Morrow has been in books longer than I have been alive (IN FACT, my mom worked at his bookstore when she was pregnant with me...) He was the president of the American Book Buyers Association for years. I am looking forward to picking his brain and giving you a glimpse of the other side (and a very important element) in the book world. Join us... *Reminder, these events are a $99 value. Free for PREMIUM & VIP members. UPGRADE. 2 guest sessions/month, and in April, get a special 1:1 bonus with Sierra Melcher. What have you learned so far from the INDUSTRY EXPERT SERIES? Share in the comments.

We’re excited to welcome Dr. @Colin Zhu to the Red Thread author community as the lead author of the upcoming collaborative cookbook, Empowered Kitchen.
