Australian Society of Authors (ASA) Navigating USA Tax & Amazon

Bamboozled, bemused, befuddled – not all the authors were as muddled as I was, despite the excellent presentation by James Simango CPA.

Published, unpublished, e-book writers and traditional writers taking our books to the USA and trying to navigate Amazon and  the tax system.

It was great to catch up with Lachlan Jobbins editor and writer, and former programme manager at the NSW Writers Centre. More importantly Lachlan is a home dad – looking after his cute 18 month son – many Mum’s ideal dad.

Author Felicity Pulman who has both a traditional publisher and has published her e-books – the last 2 of the  historical medieval young adult Janna Mysteries.

The GM Steve Wimmer was a great MC.

Congratulations to the ASA for working towards authors understanding the US market.

I’m grateful to teh ASA for the evening, as my Butterflies and I AM JACK have just been published USA and I know a bit more now.
