How to Schedule a Workshop

​Would you like to host a workshop on a topic of your choice? Once a month, an NMBA member gets the opportunity to host a workshop at La Montanita Co-op community room in Santa Fe.
 
The workshops typically happen on Wednesday evenings from 6pm-8pm. They tend to include a presentation of some kind and include an interactive element like a Q&A session. They typically run anywhere from 1-2 hours. If you are scheduled to host a workshop, you can give a brief 20-minute presentation at that month’s luncheon to get members interested in attending your workshop.
 
Payment/Pricing: NMBA will give a 60/40 split, where the presenter will receive 60% of the revenue after expenses. The Co-op will charge around $25 to use the room for 2 hours. We typically charge members $15 per workshop, and non-members $20.
 
Email the following to admin@nmbook.org to schedule your workshop:

• A short bio about yourself
• A title and description of your workshop
• A headshot
• The month you would like to host your workshop ​

Some call Mary E. Neighbour a “book shepherd,” though Mary wields a blue pencil far more expertly than a herding rod. For the past ten years, she and her husband have helped dozens of writers bring their manuscripts to the marketplace, through MediaNeighbours, their publishing services business, where they edit, design, and assist authors through the entire self-publishing process.
​
​Passionate about helping authors make their work shine in the world, with a combined professional expertise of over fifty years in editing and design, this family team is one you’ll want to adopt as your guide through the challenging world of independent publishing. They help books win awards, including the Ben Franklin, Eric Hoffer, IPPY, Nautilus, and National Indie Excellence.
