This week on Excelsior Journeys, host & producer George Sirois sits down with author & publicist Laura Stegman. As the mind behind the acclaimed "Summer of L.U.C.K." trilogy for young readers, Laura has dedicated years of her life to get these books out into the world, and has also provided tools and knowledge for other up-and-coming authors with her PR Tips for Authors workshop, a step-by-step guide to building a digital author media kit. In addition to this, she owns Laura Segal Stegman Public Relations LLC, and her non-fiction work has been featured in books, magazine, and newspapers along both coasts.

The Excelsior Journeys podcast exists primarily as a platform for creatives of all kinds (authors, filmmakers, stand-up comics, musicians, voice artists, painters, podcasters, etc) to share their journeys to personal success. It is very important to celebrate those voices as much as possible to not only provide encouragement to up-and-coming talent, but to say thank you to the established men & women for inspiring the current generation of artists.
