The Streetwise Cycle is a proud
DIY, independent book by an independent author. It's also part of a larger "indie lit" movement of
authors, publishers and booksellers who are doing an end-run around the big New York publishing houses to sell our books directly to our readers.
I've invited author
Terry Wolverton to the
book launch party to talk a bit about indie lit: What it is, Why it matters, and How readers can get involved.
When it comes to literature, Terry has just about done it all. She's the author of
eight books, including poetry, novels, nonfiction and a novel-in-poems. Her new novel,
Stealing Angel, will be published later this year. She's also edited
14 literary anthologies. Terry spent 13 years at the
Woman's Building as an artist, student, teacher and Executive Director. She is the founder of
Writers At Work, a creative writing center in LA, where she teaches fiction, creative nonfiction and poetry. She also is an Associate Faculty Mentor in the
MFA Writing Program at Antioch University Los Angeles.
If you care about books, whether you're a writer or reader, you'll want to hear what Terry has to say.
