Your Book, From First Draft to Book Proposal to Book in Hand
March 29, 2021 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Monday, March 29, 3:00-5:00pm
Joining us in the Zoom room will be Christopher Ahn, a former Senior Acquisitions editor at SUNY Press and now a freelance academic editor https://www.linkedin.com/in/christopher-ahn-136a294/. At this inaugural event, Christopher will give the big-picture view of all of the steps in the academic book publishing process, and what this looks like from the perspective of junior faculty. Here we’ll discuss not only how the process should work or “normally” works, but also some of the setbacks that can come up along the way, and strategies for overcoming them. Christopher will also share some tips about how to write a successful book proposal. Please bring questions, and note that Christopher will also be joining us for the second and third events!
