We're back and I thought it was worth reminding listeners why this podcast started in the first place!
The podcast was always designed for (and will continue to) focus on building transparency within an industry that often feels exclusionary to those from historically underrepresented backgrounds. To that end, I aim to speak to authors who are marginalised within the publishing industry due to their sexual orientation, gender, economic status, geography, ethnicity, religion, displacement, conflict or disability.
Additionally, I also aim to speak to publishing professionals within the industry, from all backgrounds to help create a more complete picture of where we are at this moment in time. This season we speak to Editors, Foreign Rights Agents, Cover Designers, and the stars in marketing and PR to help find a way to create more conversation and discussion around what this industry does well and what moves need to be made to impact change and further representation.
I hope you’ve enjoyed our past episodes featuring authors, Lizzie Damilola Blackburn, Kasim Ali, Jessica George, Preti Taneja as well as Editor, Amy Baxter. Publishers Valerie Brandes and Agents, Nelle Andrew and hope you enjoy the guests that are soon to come.
