  South Bay Local Writers Group: Guest Speaker, "The Book Doctor"

  10:30 am - NoonRedondo Beach Main Library

  Calling all writers for an opportunity to get together with other writers in a casual setting to help keep you motivated and productive.

  This month's guest speaker will be Stacey Aaronson. Stacey does it all. Really. She is an editor, proofreader, interior formatter, uploading expert. Here is Sandy Stanton's comment in the Acknowledgment page of his debut novel, "China Sea":

  You would not be holding this book in your hands if it were not for Stacey Aaronson. Stacey did the work required to get this novel published in a form that rivals the quality of a conventionally published book. She is an independent author’s best friend."

  Here are links to her website and blog.

  Explore writing topics you want to learn more about, such as query letters, critiquing of each others works, beta-readers, editing, etc.

  The monthly large-group meetups are a great opportunity for writers who want to share information, get feedback on ideas and writing, and give and receive some support and encouragement.

  Stanton Swafford, the monthly meetup's coordinator, is a Los Angeles native and world traveler, US Navy Veteran, former undercover intelligence officer and jazz musician. He recently completed his debut novel, an espionage thriller, titled China Sea.
