Chuck O’Connor, Elmer Freeman, Joe
Meiners, and Dan Volmer established this non-profit organization. They wanted
to share with others their interests in writing, producing, and publishing
their own books. SASP held its first public meeting November 1998. The founders
want members to share their experience, expertise, and resources for mutual
benefit. Membership is open to anyone, published or unpublished who is
interested in self-publishing. (Over the past ten years the organization has
grown to include writers, poets, photographers, artists, and illustrators, and
those attempting traditional as well as self-publishing.)
Here are our bylaws.
