Do the Write Thing: Author Jon Gibbs Talks About Getting Published

The world of publishing has changed. With the e-Book revolution, the increasing popularity of self-publishing and the rise in the number of e-zines (web-based magazines), there are more roads to publication than ever before.  

Whichever route you choose, there are things you should know and steps you can take which will make your journey easier, help you to improve your work, and (in the case of those looking for traditional publication) get that acceptance letter much faster.

Join New Jersey author, Jon Gibbs, for a fun, informative discussion on publishing and writing called ‘Do the Write Thing’ at the Toms River Branch of the Ocean County Library on April 24^th at 7 p.m. 

Born in England, Jon Gibbs now lives in New Jersey where he’s “Author in Residence’ at Lakehurst Elementary School. A member of several writing groups, including SCBWI, he’s the founder of NJ Authors Network and findawritinggroup.com. Jon’s debut middle grade novel, Fur-Face (Echelon Press), a middle grade fantasy, was nominated for a Crystal Kite Award. His blog, An Englishman in New Jersey, is read in over thirty countries.
