HVS Speakers Bureau

Members of the Hudson Valley Scribes are happy to speak, read and sign books at local libraries, bookstores, book club meetings and anywhere readers and aspiring authors may gather. 

In addition, our free educational programs include: 

The Road to Publication: A 90-minute session including such topics as "A Publishing Overview," "Self-Publishing on a Shoestring," "How to Write Synopsis and Blurbs that Grab Editors by the Throat," and "They Want You but Do You Want Them--Why the Publishing Contract They Send Might Not Be the One You Should Sign."  A question-and-answer session follows, plus an opportunity to buy signed copies of the participating authors' novels.

The Craft of Writing: a 90-minute presentation including valuable information on characterization, plotting, writing convincing dialogue and more. A question-and-answer session follows, plus an opportunity to buy signed copies of the participating authors' novels.
