Rose, the co-authors of How to Publish and Promote Online (St. Martin's Press). Both women know what it's like to be in the trenches of epublishing. Angela Adair-Hoy writes a weekly newsletter for freelance writers and runs her own publishing business at Booklocker.com, which publishes ebooks and Print On Demand books. M.J.

A Conversation With Jerrilyn Farmer Bestselling mystery novelist and humor writer Jerrilyn Farmer has written comedy for Dana Carvey, John Lovitz and many members of the cast of Saturday Night Live. Her comedic talents have translated equally well to the mystery genre. Her Madeline Bean mystery series, about a caterer who is also a bit of an amateur detective, has won an Agatha Award and a Macavity Award, and has been nominated for several other awards and honors.
