About this course:

This course will focus on the general trajectory of book publication from the launch of the book on, and specifically the role of editor in the modern iterations of publishing. It will cover the trajectory from a book being sold into the market, to release, to PR, marketing, and the how an editor helps in building an author’s career. We will be focused on how the job of an editor looks different in different types of publishing—big five, small press, University press, etc. We will also cover some of the history of publishing and how it has changed recently.
