ANDERSON, Gary

Gary Anderson has been a published writer, editor, ghostwriter, and manuscript analyst for more than 20 years! In September 2004, one of Gary's ghostwriting clients obtained a mainstream publisher within one week of its completion. As a published author, Anderson has been called "one of the Midwest's premiere humorists," but his thoughtful books also contain a healthy sprinkling of inspiration, as well. Many of the short stories in his books first appeared in the popular "Wit and Wisdom" column of Iowa REC News, which he's written since 1996, reaching 165,000 readers every month. In addition, Gary has sold more than 500 articles, published four books, ghosted nearly a dozen more, and was a staff writer for Oregon's largest entertainment weekly. He has edited more than 100 full-length manuscripts, as well as four national and three regional newsletters over the years. He previously taught freelance writing classes at Online University and has reviewed more than 800 manuscripts for leading-edge, print-on-demand publishers.

SINCLAIR, Candace

Candace Sinclair specializes in mentoring, coaching and instructing writers and screenwriters through all phases of the writing, editing, publishing, and marketing process. As the former VP of Publishing and Courseware Development for a Washington-based publishing company, Candace was involved with the writing, publication, marketing, and sales of more than twenty titles. As a manuscript reviewer for several popular online print-on-demand publishers, she reviewed several hundred manuscripts; she's written four of her own screenplays, several fiction and non-fiction books, 100+ e-books on writing and editing, and has co-written book adaptations into feature film scripts for several authors. As a freelance writer, she wrote a monthly column for Gothic Journal magazine; worked as a stringer and photo-journalist for a Midwest newspaper covering local news and events; sold freelance articles to magazines, taught in-person and online writing and computer courses, and has owned and operated The Writer's Mentor since 1985, and Writer's Mentor University since 2001.

WILLIAMSON, Rebecca

Rebecca Williamson has had two incarnations in the world of publishing: first, as an award-winning journalist, and second, as a book editor. She has been managing editor of both a daily morning newspaper and a traditional publishing house. She has edited more than 100 books and reviewed hundreds more as submissions.

Between her lives in the words, Rebecca experienced a variety of other occupations when family concerns required that she shift her focus. She has been a law enforcement officer, magistrate, anti-poverty worker, and substitute teacher.

Going walkabout from her vocation gave her a new perspective, and a wealth of information that enables her to help writers on a wide variety of subjects, and enough story ideas to fuel her own writing for some time to come.

Rebecca especially enjoys introducing first-time authors to the publishing experience.
