Kitty Werner has been in writing and publishing since 1990, working as a journalist, editor and publisher after buying her first computer in 1982 while working at a computer store, teaching customers how to use their computers. As President of the League of Vermont Writers, she started and directed the Dorothy Canfield Fisher Writers Conference that ran for eight years. She was the editor of the Vermont Journal for six months, editor of FAB Women newspaper, wrote a column for Prime Time Journal, and many feature stories for the Country Courier. She founded RSBPress in 2001 after editing six books for Random House and designing the interiors of five of the books, then having an offered contract for a book turned down at the last moment by Macmillan. She successfully published the book rewritten and retitled, The Savvy Woman’s Guide to Owning a Home, that sold out three printings and went onto a second edition. Since then, she has been designing and publishing the books of others as Distinction Press, as well as designing for, and “shepherding” other publishers to establish their own publishing companies successfully.
