The line-up of bestselling authors at BEA includes New York Times Bestseller David Thorne, congressional candidate and political author Kevin Powell, and marketing/tech guru Scott Steinberg. Each author will be signing and giving away a limited number of free copies of their newest books as follows:
•Tues., June 5th 1:00PM - 4:00PM – Kevin Powell: Congressional candidate turned bestselling political author, Powell presents his 11th book Barack Obama, Ronald Reagan, and the Ghost of Dr. King, which is available through Lulu.com and explores modern politics and pop culture through recent events such as the tragic murder of Trayvon Martin.
•Wed., June 6th 1:00PM - 4:00PM – David Thorne: New York Times Bestselling Author, Thorne shares his latest collection of hilariously entertaining emails and articles in his new book I’ll Go Home Then, It’s Warm and Has Chairs. The Unpublished Emails.
•Thurs., June 7th 9:00AM -12:00PM – Scott Steinberg: Well-known media personality from publications including Fast Company and Rolling Stone, Steinberg shares valuable insights in his book The Modern Parent’s Guide to Kids and Video Games, which explores 40 years of invention and unrivaled insight for making gaming a positive part of family life. Don’t miss the debut of his latest title The Crowdfunding Bible, too.
The bestselling author meet and greet comes in conjunction with Lulu.com CEO and Founder Bob Young’s presentation on two panels at BEA on Sunday, June 3rd. Calling on years of salesmanship and expertise, Young will share valuable tips and insights for publishing success on the Break Through & Publish You panel from 9:00AM - 9:50AM, followed by the Publishing Partners That Put Unknown Authors on the Bookshelf panel from 1:30PM - 2:20PM. Both panels take place Sunday, June 3rd at the Javits Convention Center in New York.
We’re very excited to be involved with such a great show like BEA,” says Young. “We’re even more excited to be able to put an end to the stigma that self-published authors don’t make any money. Here are three examples of bestsellers turning to self-publishing to gain more control over their works and reach even more readers. We can't wait for BEA attendees to get to meet these remarkable authors who each come from different backgrounds, but who have each found success.”
