Best Practices for Self-Publishing: May 25, 2016
As part of the King County Library System’s “Playing with Words” program, Gerri will be discussing how to self-publish for unpublished and published authors alike. This is a “how to” workshop, not a “should I do it” workshop.
Gerri will discuss things to consider before you self-publish, how to prepare your manuscript for conversion, then take you through the steps for producing a converted document for .mobi (Kindle) and ePub (All other e-tailers). It’s a must for anyone considering self-publishing.

Flirting with Felicity in the News
My first contemporary novel has gotten some fun press I wanted to share.
The Boca Raton Observer included FLIRTING WITH FELICITY in an April 2015 article entitled, “Happy Endings” by Linda Haase. Ms. Haase writes, “This sweet tale includes all the requisite ingredients for love and…the journey is a good, lighthearted read.”
Luxury-themed magazine DuJour featured FLIRTING WITH FELICITY in a February 2015 article entitled “Romance Novels You’ll Actually Love.” Claiming these top books are “anything but cheesy,” the magazine says:
If you like your romance served with delectable treats…Geri Russell’s Flirting with Felicity takes the story into the kitchen, with a lovable chef and a relentless billionaire.
