With our panel of best-selling authors and book publishing professionals: Miral Sattar from BiblioCrunch (http://bibliocrunch.com/), author Rahimeh Andalbian, transmedia writer and game designer Andrea Philips, and editor Stephanie Golden, we'll cover the basics of self-publishing and give you an A-Z guide to getting your book ready for publication and how to successfully market it.

**Update** We were able to hire a team of certified sign language interpreters from ALL HANDS IN MOTION for the event to make it more accessible.
