About this Event
Join staff from HarperCollins’ Manchester-based imprint HarperNorth to learn how book publishing works.
Publisher Genevieve Pegg and head of marketing and publicity Alice Murphy-Pyle will explain the publishing process, from manuscripts and editorial development to production, distribution, and marketing—and share practical tips for making a book successful. They will also share advice for budding industry staff, including CV tips and where to find that elusive first job.
The event is suitable for aspiring authors, particularly those writing for adults, and anyone interested in a publishing career at a trade publisher, offering insight into roles and pathways in the industry. Attendees can ask questions, receive guidance on improving manuscripts and submission strategies, and talk to professionals working in-house.
Come prepared with questions about your book, and ask all your careers questions!
