October 2011. Publishing in Today's Market
sponsored by Josephine County Libraries
featured Tim Wohlforth among others. Wohlforth
recommended investigating your options with
agents and traditional publishers before
deciding to self publish. Traditional publishers
and small presses will be more likely to pay you
for your work, and have they will help you reach
an audience beyond your immediate friends. The
panel was held on October 21, 2011 in Grant’s
Pass, Oregon.
September 2011.
Short story Big Emma's published in Over
My Dead Body. It was a windy rainy night and
Jim Wolf was perched on a stool at Big Emma's,
the Victorian bar on Jack London Square when:
"the door opened. Gusts of rain-soaked wind blew
in around a lone figure wearing a tan
full-length gabardine raincoat. Not Target. More
like Neiman-Marcus. Water dripped from the rim
of a matching hat. A large leather bag - I'd bet
Coach- hung from her shoulder. She had
short-bobbed, rich brown hair and the largest
deep brown eyes I had ever seen. The pupils left
little room for the white of the eye. Like the
button eyes on a teddy bear. Gave her a
child-like look. She seemed bewildered as she
searched the room." She found Wolf and took him
on an adventure he would never forget.
