AuthorHouse Awards Free Publishing Package to Winner of the San Francisco Writers Conference Non-Fiction Writing Contest

BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Feb. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- AuthorHouse, the leading provider of self-publishing, marketing, and bookselling services for authors around the globe, announced today that Art Schwartz, author of "Survivor of La Revolucion," has been awarded a Pinnacle Publishing Package for winning the non-fiction category at the Seventh Annual San Francisco Writers Conference.

"We're pleased to be able to offer Art the opportunity to finally publish his book and bring it to market," said Keith Ogorek, vice president of marketing for Author Solutions, Inc. (ASI) - parent company of AuthorHouse. "More and more authors are deciding to take control of their work by self-publishing their manuscripts and getting them into the hands of readers."

ASI served as a Silver Sponsor at this year's SFWC, awarding publishing packages from its industry-leading imprints to winners in four categories: nonfiction, fiction, poetry and children's. Ogorek also presented a seminar titled "What Good Does it Do to Die with a Manuscript in Your Drawer?," during which he outlined the increased publishing options available to authors.

"The generous donation of professional publishing packages from Author Solutions makes our writing contest the only one I know of that guarantees the winners will have their works published," said Laurie McLean, SFWC contest director. "Since that's one of the main reasons writers enter these contests - eventual publication of their writing - we can't thank Author Solutions enough for their support and contribution."
