About the Speaker

As the president of Intrigue Publishing, Denise Camacho has spent more
than 13 years navigating through the publishing pitfalls and has finally
brought Intrigue into the traditional publisher realm. Denise spends most
of her time reading new submissions and working with the acquisitions
team to find those works that are worthy of becoming Intrigue properties.
(Intrigue is currently taking submissions for crime drama, sensual
romance, urban drama, and young adult.) Along with running Intrigue,
Denise is very involved with helping authors learn about publishing and
marketing and how to avoid some of the major pitfalls within the
industry.
