SUMMARY:Sevenoaks and Tunbridge Wells Group: Routes into Publishing Panel
DESCRIPTION:Join the Sevenoaks and Tunbridge Wells Group on Tuesday 21 April from 5.30pm (talk starts at 6pm) for a panel discussion on different routes into publishing. We have assembled a panel of three experts from among our membership: John Webb\, Nathalie Abi-Ezzi and Peter Smith\, all of whom have wide-ranging experience of the problems and opportunities of traditional\, hybrid and entirely self-published routes to market. \nWe will also have Stephanie Jackson\, Publishing Director at DK Books\, joining us to give a publisher’s perspective. Writers are not the only ones in the literary world who have undergone huge changes in their market place these last few decades\, and understanding the publishing world better is part of solving the eternal problem off how to get our work in front of the reading public. \nWe will meet at the Tunbridge Wells Hotel\, 58 The Pantiles\, Tunbridge Wells TN2 5TD. If you would like to submit any questions in advance\, please email them to localgroups@societyofauthors.org. \nTo attend the meeting\, click the Going button below and fill out the RSVP form. If you do not receive a confirmation email\, or have trouble signing up\, please contact localgroups@societyofauthors.org. \n
