- **Event Name**: Talking to the Publisher of Beaver's Pond Press
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 21 Feb, 2026 at 11:00 am
- **Event Description**: This is the first in our Talking to the Publisher series. 

Lily Baber Coyle of Beaver’s Pond Press will have a chat with us at the Boat Club Restaurant in the Fitger’s Complex. 

Lily, an author herself, will explain how to successfully approach a hybrid publisher and exact what a hybrid publisher is and does. Lily joined the Navy as a teen to see the world and pay for school. She spent the following years as a freelance writer, editor, and ghostwriter, and has had five plays produced on three continents. Notable works include the play Watermelon Hill and the graphic novel, The Last Abatement, but she is most fond of the two daughters she produced with her talented husband, filmmaker Patrick Coyle. Lily came to Beaver’s Pond Press in 2011 as a ghostwriter and in 2018 took over as owner, continuing the grand work of turning interesting people into independent authors in St. Paul. She says she can no longer count how many books she’s ghostwritten and/or edited and/or managed and/or published but she can count herself blessed to be surrounded day and night by stories and storytellers.

As it explains on Beaver’s Pond Press website: “There are about 1,000 different ways to publish a book, and you just want someone to help you figure out what to do. We’ve published over 1,000 books, and we’re very good at helping authors figure out what to do. You need someone to listen, someone to grasp what you’re trying to achieve, someone to be realistic about what it takes to do this right. We are the real deal. Our process is all human interaction, judgment calls, tough love, and hard truth.” 

We’re hoping to have several of the authors published by the press on hand and the Bookstore at Fitger’s, our partner in this event, will have those books for sale. The Inn at Fitger’s is also a supporter of this event as is the Boat Club Restaurant. We may also try to have a Zoom link if possible here:  https://us06web.zoom.us/j/81545322488?pwd=TG93FZqg82vNphxSVMIqt8p14mNg37.1

This and other LSW events get support made possible in part by the voters of Minnesota through an operating grant received from the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council, thanks to legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage funds.
