The topic of ePublishing will be presented by multiple award-winning author and FWA regional director Vic DiGenti at the monthly meeting of the Ancient City Chapter of the Florida Writers Association at 10:15 a.m. Saturday at the Main Library, 1960 No. Ponce de Leon Blvd. Library doors open at 10 a.m., and all are welcome to attend.

Experts are predicting that eBooks will enjoy a 50 percent share of the book market by the year 2015, and local writers can benefit from this introductory lesson and survey of the digital book revolution. DiGenti will take a look back at the history of ePublishing and explain why more and more traditional authors are converting 'tree' books into digital equivalents, and earning higher dollars in the process. He will explain what writers need to do to take advantage of this revolution.

After a career as a documentary producer, reporter and former Jacksonville Jazz Festival producer, DiGenti turned to his first love - writing. He published three award-winning adventure fantasies with a feline protagonist: Windrusher, Windrusher and the Cave of Tho-Hoth, and Windrusher and the Trail of Fire (Ocean Publishing). These days, he is writing mysteries under the name Parker Francis. The first, titled Matanzas Bay, was released as an eBook. Next up in the series is Bring Down the Furies.

This program is presented in partnership with the Friends of the Main Library, SJC and the Ancient City Chapter of the Florida Writers Association. The sale of books benefits the Friends of the Main Library.
