Publishing Masterclass with Canelo Publishing

Description

Let's head behind the scenes of publishing with independent publisher, Canelo, for three masterclasses with the editorial team. 

Learn about the different roles and departments within a busy publishing house, how books are edited and published, and how publishers interact with readers and booksellers to help grow their authors' audience. Immerse yourself in a world of writing and pick up lots of tips to apply to your own writing and submission process.

Discover how to make your book a hit from examples of a synopsis that works and what angle to take, to which creative writing techniques to employ to keep your reader reading. Learn the key things a publisher looks for when they consider submissions and how a publisher uses metadata to help launch a bestseller.

Canelo has published books since 2015, and become one of the fastest-growing publishers in Europe. In both 2021 and 2022 Canelo was shortlisted for Independent Publisher of the Year at the British Book Awards, and their stable of authors includes numerous literary prize nominees and million-copy bestsellers. 

As sponsor and judge of the I Am In Print Novel Award 2023 Canelo also announce the winners of the competition during the classes. Listen to why the publisher chose those three novels and meet the three shocked authors onscreen!
