Back by popular demand: an informed, freewheeling discussion for aspiring and published authors, as well as anyone curious about the state of book publishing in 2018. Panelists Emily Bell (senior editor at Farrar, Straus and Giroux), Elaine Katzenberger (Publisher of City Lights), Niels Hooper (Executive Editor of the University of California Press), and Avalon Radys (Director, Marketing & Publishing Operations of Inkshares), with moderator Brooke Warner (Publisher, She Writes Press) represent the many faces of publishing—from big house to small, university press to hybrid, traditional and non-traditional alike. They’ll consider Amazon’s expansion, the state of the traditional book industry, the biggest changes happening in publishing today, and ways the political climate affects what publishers are acquiring—and therefore what we’re reading.
