Authors, Take Your Message from the Page to Television: Join The Authors Channel’s Star-Studded Launch

You’ve written the book. Now imagine stepping onto a televised stage to share the message behind it—alongside celebrity authors, filmmakers, and influential voices.

On Tuesday, October 20, 2026, beginning at 9:00 AM Pacific / noon Eastern, The Authors Channel will celebrate its televised soft launch through eZWay TV, bringing together an exciting lineup of featured speakers—and inviting authors who are ready to expand their visibility to join the program.

Whether you’re launching a new book, introducing your work to a new audience, or building a movement around your message, this is an opportunity to bring your voice beyond the page.

Your book could be part of the celebration.

An Incredible Lineup of Featured Voices

The launch brings together voices from authorship, entertainment, entrepreneurship, and personal transformation, including:

  • Greg S. Reid — Bestselling author, speaker, and filmmaker.

  • John Duffy — Film producer and speaker bringing a powerful perspective on storytelling, resilience, and possibility.

  • Linda Duong — International bestselling author.

  • Karen Lee Cohen — Eight-time Emmy Award winner and author of Let’s Be Peace.

  • Traci Saunders Campbell — Author, entrepreneur, and founder.

  • Mike Driggers — Author, speaker, and member of The Authors Channel executive team.

  • Vince Baker — Author, speaker, and member of The Authors Channel executive team.

Omar Periu will host, with Eric Zuley and Melissa Heathers joining as co-hosts and speakers, welcoming authors and viewers to this new chapter for The Authors Channel.

Together, these featured voices will help celebrate the stories, ideas, and experiences that inspire people to write—and the possibilities that open when those messages reach new audiences.
