**Vickie Mullins started Mullins Creative, an award-winning graphic design company, in 1991. Her company exceled in print design, with a specialty in multi-page documents … books, magazines, tabloids, directories, and company brand development and execution.

In 2006 she and a partner started a publishing company, Perfect Bound Marketing + Press after authoring a series of eight books. From the lessons she learned through the school of hard knocks, today she guides authors through the steps of becoming independent publishers where they maintain control of their books and their financial destiny. An expert on Special Market Sales, Vickie says she doesn’t care if she ever sells another single book … instead, she’d rather sell her books by the 1,000s.

**Caren Cantrell is the owner of 102nd Place, LLC, a company that enables authors to bypass the uncertain and lengthy process of traditional publishing and get their books, and more importantly their message, to readers in a way that gives them ultimate control. She specializes in non-fiction and children’s books. Her services include everything from ghostwriting to editing to interior design and publication. Caren is an indie author herself, giving her unique knowledge of what makes an indie published book look like it came from a traditional publisher.

When Caren isn’t writing or helping others to get published, she travels around the country and overseas visiting her seven grandchildren. It’s one of the things she loves best about her job; she can work from anywhere and most often does!

**As a book shepherd, Ann Videan guides peers through the writing, editing, publishing and word-of-mouth marketing of both fiction and nonfiction titles. A professional writer since 1981, she opened her own award-winning home-based marketing firm, vIDEAn Unlimited, LLC, in 1996, which supports young writers and artists.

Ann showed up in this world with a pen in her hand, a song in her heart, and the desire to share with you. She adores creativity of all types, and especially the people who live it. She gathers friends like flowers, including authors, musicians, artists, and her husband and two grown-up children. The Colorado native lives in Mesa, Arizona, along with numerous invisible friends including snarky mythical creatures and magical story characters.

**Moderator: Patricia L. Brooks started Brooks Goldmann Publishing Company, LLC in 2005 with her author husband Earl L. Goldmann. As a publishing consultant, award-winning author of three memoirs, workshop facilitator and president/founder of Scottsdale Society of Women Writers she serves her fellow writers and authors in many ways.

Patricia ‘jump starts’ a writer’s manuscript by putting the team together necessary to make Independent Publishing an exciting journey. She helps potential authors through the maze of getting their book out to the world.   For more information see www.brooksgoldmannpublishing.com or contact her at patricia@plbrooks.com
