What Publishers Are Looking for in New Authors

@ the Brigham City Library, 26 E. Forest St. 

Tuesday, 19 April 2016, 7 p.m. 

Shadow Mountain Publishing specializes in fiction for children and teens as well as romance, mystery, and general fiction for adults. They also publish inspirational nonfiction and a handful of biographies and seasonal titles. Mangum's presentation will highlight the four things we look for in a new author: Creativity, Vision, Flexibility, and Passion.

Lisa Mangum has loved and worked with books ever since elementary school, when she volunteered at the school library during recess. Her first paying job was shelving books at the Sandy Library. She worked for five years at Waldenbooks while she attended the University of Utah, graduating with honors with a degree in English. An avid reader of all genres, she has worked in the publishing department for Deseret Book since 1997. Besides books, Lisa loves movies, sunsets, spending time with her family, trips to Disneyland, and vanilla ice cream topped with fresh raspberries. She is the acquisitions editor at Shadow Mountain and author of The Hourglass Door Trilogy and After Hello. Lisa lives in Taylorsville with her husband, Tracy.

A book signing will follow.
Books may be purchased at this event.
