Kevin Watson & Patricia Thompson The Inside Track: Publishing Your Book

Join Kevin Watson of Press 53 and Patricia Thompson of Redhawk Publications for an engaging and informative conversation on The Fine Points of Small-Press Publishing in the 21st Century. Drawing on years of industry experience, these seasoned publishing professionals will discuss what they look for in a manuscript, common red flags that can halt a project before it begins, and what happens once a manuscript is accepted. Learn about the editorial process, expectations placed on authors, and how small publishers and writers collaborate to shape and promote a successful book. This session will offer practical insights into how North Carolina publishers help authors navigate today’s literary landscape, from submission to release, promotion to public appearances.
