Ten years later, during the pandemic and the boom of online shopping, along with publishing trends pivoting away from traditional publishing, I decided to once again self-publish. This time it was my collection of Momservations\u00ae \u201cgreatest hits,\u201d Don\u2019t Forget Your Lunch, Diapers to Diploma Parenting Wisdom<\/a>, through my Hawthorne Street Press imprint, using Amazon as my printer and distributor.<\/p>\n

There used to be a wonderful resource for my Writing Your Memoir students in Sacramento, where they could publish their completed manuscripts extremely affordably through the Sacramento Downtown Library. I Street Press, run by the wonderful Gerry Ward, unfortunately, became a victim of the pandemic.<\/p>\n

In trying to find an affordable solution for my writing students to publish their memoirs, I realized the answer was in front of us the whole time: Hawthorne Street Press.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1686186707098{background-color: #faf3e9 !important;}”][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text css=””]Starting in 2022, HSP has now published\u00a0 8 titles from Writing Your Memoir students:<\/strong><\/p>\n
