- Thank you.
- @george crisp you probably only need to attend the one session. Dates on the website.
- Hi Lisa, I would love to get involved. I have had a few different experiences (ups and downs) in my career and learning to get into the publishing industry would be so helpful!
- How often will this group meet?
- Hi Lisa, I’m a second year international media & comms student still deciding on my career path and would love to join to ask some general questions !
- I have requested to join! Definitely the sort of thing I am interested in. I have been trying to get into publishing since graduating last September and keen to learn as much as I possibly can to hopefully help me break into the industry!
- @Melissa Frateantonio yes, happy to chat about any area of publishing and the industry.
- count me in!
- This looks good, I'll be there :)
- This sounds brilliant! I wondered whether you would be open to giving advice on the illustration/artwork side of the books and publishing world (i.e. illustrating a book, book covers, etc.)? Thank you in advance :-)
- Am definitely interested in this. However, can't do Zoom for now (tech problem needs sorting). I am a writer with more than thirty years experience, published several books, numerous articles and reviews down the years. Have also edited and translated.
