The Muse and the Marketplace is one of my favorite gatherings of the year. This year, I’ll be moderating a panel and talking about my experiences working with Bellevue Literary Press.

5J: Small Press, Big Time: The Writer’s Guide to Publishing with an Indie Press


2:15pm-3:30pm on Saturday, May 4th

It’s no longer news that small presses are publishing some of the best and most widely read fiction and non-fiction on the market. Their books are winning major prizes, finding wide audiences, and catching the attention of media like never before. As a result, some of the best writers are turning to small presses, and getting an editor of a small press to acquire your book has become much more competitive. On this panel, editors from three excellent small presses at various stages of development will discuss how their processes and business models differ from those of the Big 6, what kinds of novels and book-length non-fiction they are looking for, what authors should expect from their editors and marketing teams, and the role of the small press in the literary landscape as a whole.
