Writers & Editors & Designers, oh my!

Indie publishing won me over with the publication of my first novel, Women’s Company – The Minerva Girls.  The model holds fast for me, and last month I published my third novel, Cloud County Harvest, the sequel to Cloud County Persuasion.  
 
Indie publishing is often referred to as self-publishing because the author is in control of the publishing processes:  editorial, design, production, distribution, marketing, promotion, and rights licensing.  That means the indie author must build a network of individuals who work to professional standards.
 
But where do indie authors find these good people?  
I.  Editor:  Robyn Conley.  

​For me, the search for an editor ended when I met Robyn Conley at an annual conference of the Oklahoma Writers’ Federation, Inc.  Her credits include not only hundreds of edited manuscripts for satisfied clients, but also a list of her published nonfiction.  
 
Robyn has edited all three of my novels.  I salute her with a big “Thank you!”  
 
When she is not tackling a manuscript at her headquarters in Texas, Robyn shares her expertise as a guest speaker at writers’ conferences and workshops in Arizona, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas—and wherever else the work takes her.  
 
You can learn more about Robyn by visiting her online home robynconley.com.  If you like, she’ll give you a free ten-page critique of your manuscript.  See her website for details.
“I’ve seen the difference Robyn can make. Her knowledge and insights are amazing.” 

​--Thomas B. Sawyer, head screenwriter for Murder She Wrote and other television programs; author of The Sixteenth Man.
