UPCOMING MEETINGS

November 7, 2026

From Pen Name to Business Name:

LLCs, DBAs & Building the Business Behind Your Author Brand

Speaker: Desarie Green


This practical workshop breaks down two of the most common—and commonly misunderstood—business tools for authors: Limited Liability Companies (LLCs) and Doing Business As (DBA) names. Participants will learn what LLCs and DBAs actually do, the differences between them, when an author should consider establishing one, and what is involved in setting them up and maintaining them.
