This is the substack I’ve been waiting for. Thank you for being straightforward and making a daunting journey feel accessible to writers from all walks of life. Your authors are lucky to have you. Really looking forward to your upcoming posts (and book)!
Really pleased I stumbled upon your newsletter Alia (via Laura on BSky). I'd love more book recommendations on navigating the publishing industry. (I'm an aspiring editor FWIW and so your outline of these roles is keenly interesting).
Shane, I am just seeing this! So I love the book MERCHANTS OF CULTURE, which is more of a sociological study than a guide, but it is excellent. Betsy Lerner's THE FOREST THROUGH THE TREES is a classic. You're going to love Laura's book!!
such a perfect title! thanks for this master class, not only on getting traditionally published, but also on how to use other media platforms to supplement and amplify your book content! already taking notes!

Such a fascinating and insightful substack ! As a passionate cookbook collector, I’m thrilled to dive deeper and learn more about how they come to be!
