Presentation title:
How to
Organize for Efficient Marketing and Promotion
Presenter Bio:
Fantasy enthusiasts will recognize Sandy Lender as the author of the
2007 breakout novel "Choices Meant for Gods" from ArcheBooks
Publishing, but the South Florida resident has been writing since she was knee
high to a grasshopper. At the early age of about six, Sandy entertained the
folks in her great grandmother's apartment building in Southern Illinois with
stories of squeaky spiders and mice picking berries. Sandy won a first-place
award with that imagination when she wrote a sequel to Harper Lee's "To
Kill a Mockingbird" during her school days in the St. Louis area before
earning a degree in English from Truman State University in Kirksville, Mo.
That led to a career in journalism where she's worked for a variety of publications
the past 23 years.
Today she's the editorial director of two construction magazines and
editor/publisher of an avian publication. ArcheBooks is releasing the final of
the “Choices” trilogy late this summer in hardcover and a number of her YA
novels are getting star treatment. She presents workshops on writing, editing,
online marketing and the surprising topic of parrot husbandry. But writing and
marketing are only half her story. Sandy is also a sea turtle conservationist,
serving in the group Turtle Time since 2005. She also has companion parrots and
turtles in her home who keep her hopping. It takes one ring on her cell phone
to discover she's remained obsessed with Duran Duran since 1984. She's beaten
cancer twice, but still fights the IRS. For PD15 she’s teaching us the art of
organization for marketing—looking at her schedule, you can see the need for
organization to keep everything on deadline.
