Life of a Book Author Development Programme: Post Publication

Voices from across the literary sector, including writers, agents, publishers, festival programmers, and booksellers, came together in this series of free online events to answer those questions that are so essential to the life of your book - but often so hard to ask.
Over the course of a week, panelists explored key topics through discussion. Audience members could pre-submit questions, as well as asking live, helping to hone the discussions to what you needed to hear about. These Panel Discussions were open to all.
Session 4: Post-Publication
Publication day is approaching; what happens now that your book is going to be out in the world? In the fourth session of the week, poet, playwright and performer Hannah Lavery leads the discussion around navigating expectations and activity once your book has been published. She is joined by founder of Argonaut Books, Adam Barclay; Communications Director at Canongate, Anna Frame; and poet and StAnza Artistic Director, Ryan Van Winkle.
This programme was developed and funded by Creative Scotland, with support from Hawthornden Foundation with Society of Authors, and facilitated by Moniack Mhor.
