BookExpo America's Conference/Educational Programs run from May 31 - June 3, 2007 at the Jacob Javitz Convention Center in New York, City
Visit: http://events.aalbc.com/bookexpo_america_2007.htm
BookExpo America (BEA) combines the largest selection of English language titles on the planet with special industry and author events and unparalleled educational content to create a dynamic environment for networking, sourcing and relationship building.
There will be a ton of events at this year's Book Expo America (BEA) in New York City. My favorite aspect, of course, is the African-American Pavilion:
African-American Pavilion
“The African American pavilion (AAP) stands for more than just a united face of publishers, but the voice and power of black book publishing. This is a special showcase of books and magazines by black publishers or black interest titles, including fiction, non-fiction, children’s, self-help and magazines.”
This will be largest AAP since it’s inception four years ago (The African American Pavilion was founded in 2004 By: Tony Rose - CEO, Amber Communications Group, Inc; Adrienne Ingrum; and Niani Colom - Associate Publisher, Genesis Press). This will be AALBC.com’s second consecutive year exhibiting in the AAP.
I will be giving a class with Natalie Stokes – Black Classic Press and Pam Perry – Ministry Marketing Solutions, Inc. called Success Strategies for the African American Book Market more information: http://www.pma-online.org/pmau2007/1.cfm
I will also be presenting a seminar called How to Promote and Market your Books On-line with Ron Kavanaugh - MosaicBooks.com and James Lisbon - AMAG Online Magazine.
There will be plenty of opportunities to network, make business deals, get a ton of books and learn more about the publishing industry. There will also be plenty of time to party too!
AALBC.com is hosting with Mosaicbooks and Harlemworld magazine the 2nd “Black Pack” Party (read about the first one here: http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0HST/is_3_3/ai_75121822). AALBC.com is also working with Relentless Aaron, Violator Records, G-Unit & St. Martin's Press on a party at the Shadow night club. I understand Clara Villarosa and Faye Childs will be hosting events as well.
Visit http://events.aalbc.com/bookexpo_america_2007.htm for more detail -- I’ll be making frequent updates.
Peace,
Troy

You'll have to copy and paste the whole link about including the text after the "@". Clicking it will not work as the automatic hyperlink is not picking up all the text
