THE CALIFORNIA WRITERS CLUB ORANGE COUNTY IS a 501(c)(3) nonprofit
Pam has been a book industry insider for more than 40 years, starting in sales and marketing with major New York publishers -- Random House, Crown Publishers, and Simon and Schuster. She pitched hundreds of books each selling season to the savviest buyers and bookstores across the country. Her literary ear and commercial instincts have guided a long, successful career in the industry.
Join us as she explains the meaning of book comps (comparative titles), their purpose, and the critically important role they serve for authors and publishers in the selling of books.
Learn important information you may have never even considered about the marketing and selling of your self-published works or what you need to successfully pitch agents.
CWC members write novels, short stories, screen plays, poetry, nonfiction articles and books, commercial work and more.
More than half our members are published writers.
