An opioid epidemic, A trade war, Not America in 2020, but China in the 1840s
Following the harrowing journey of Lady Su-Mei and her family, Robert Wang’s debut novel is a historical drama told from dual perspectives—Chinese and British—about the First Opium War, a tragic and history- altering conflict. Honoring the tradition of noted historical fiction writers such as Ken Follett, Philippa Gregory, Bernard Cornwell, and James Clavell, The Opium Lord’s Daughter artfully weaves actual events and characters into the narrative, offering the reader a selective glimpse into a world populated with rogue drug traders, imperialist government officials, religious zealots, and scrappy survivors. The Opium Lord’s Daughter is an expedition through the destruction of a culture, underscoring the hold and havoc drug empires continue to exert in society, even to this day. A must-read for fans of Shogun, White Queen, Downtown Abbey, Poldark, and other sweeping tales rooted in history. |

An interview of Kathleen by Anthony Mora, CEO of PR For Writers.
A Conversation with Kathleen
I met Kathleen at the wonderfully produced 805 Writers’ Conference. I make a point of that, since she produced it. Kathleen is a savvy navigator of all things publishing. With four published books and three plays under her belt, she understands how authors and artists are often confused by the new world of marketing their products and themselves. Kathleen, whose expertise encompasses seminars, conferences, special events, publicity, marketing communications and trade show production, maintains a small list of clients that allow her to continue her volunteerism, which includes being co-founder and executive director of the Pacific Institute for Professional Writing, producer of the annual 805 Writers’ Conference, president of the national organization Small Publishers, Artists & Writers Network (SPAWN), and organizer of a monthly literary meeting in Thousand Oaks, CA sponsored by SPAWN and the Independent Writers of Southern California. The following is a conversation with Kathleen on books, writers and the brave new world of publishing.

Kathleen Sexton Kaiser, president of Kathleen Kaiser & Associates, was been named “Publicist of the Year” for 2016 by the Book Publicists of Southern California (BPSC). The award was presented at a ceremony on October 13 at the Sportsman Lodge in Studio City, CA. This is the 22nd year for the Irwin Awards.
“I was quite shocked by the phone call from Irwin Zucker of BPSC,” said Kaiser. “I’ve been doing publicity since the age of sixteen and have always stayed in the background. It’s quite a different sensation to be in the spotlight. I’m flattered by the award.”
