Program

What happens between finishing a manuscript and seeing a book in the world? This session brings together key players across the publishing process to demystify how books are selected, shaped, produced and released. The discussion will unpack common misconceptions about agents, editors, design and publishing, and offer a realistic picture of how decisions are made.
This is a rare opportunity to ask the experts anything you want to know about what it takes to be published.

Note: Pitching manuscripts from the floor is not part of this session.
