Digital Storytelling: New Opportunities for Women Writers

By Linda Lee

LauraFraser

Laura Fraser

Saturday, January 10, 2015
10:30 am – 12:30 pm
Meeting & Mixer for Members
Oakland Main Library, Meeting Room
125 14th Street, Oakland, CA  94612
Coffee, Bagels, and Pastries

Laura Fraser will discuss how the shifting media landscape from print to digital doesn’t have to be negative for women writers and readers, but is full of new opportunities for telling your story. She will describe many new venues for storytellers and readers, online and in print, and talk about how to break in and survive as a writer in new media. Laura will also talk about how to write a compelling story, whether in a blog, online, or in print, so that you can gain the widest possible audience.

ShebooksLogoLaura Fraser is the Cofounder and Editorial Director of Shebooks.net, a new digital storytelling platform for women. She is also the NYT-bestselling author of the memoirs An Italian Affair and All Over the Map, as well as the journalistic expose, Losing It. An award-winning journalist, she has written hundreds of articles for such publications as the New York Times, O the Oprah Magazine, Sunset, Gourmet, Vogue, More, Health, and many others, including online venues Medium and Salon.com. Her work has been anthologized in over thirty books, including Best Women’s Travel Writing and Best Food Writing.

T-shirt-EqualWritesShebooks.net is a digital storytelling platform by and for women. Shebooks has already published over 70 short e-books, focusing mainly on memoir. Shebooks believes that every woman has a story, and helps women share those stories to inspire, educate, entertain, and empower each other. Our e-books are available at Shebooks.net and at Amazon and Barnes & Noble. We have also just published our first print anthology, Whatever Doesn’t Kill You, also available at Amazon or at local bookstores Book Passages or the Booksmith.
