Publishing
This course takes students step-by-step through the process by which an author's words become a book in the hands of a reader. Follow a book through all its stages--from concept to submission by a literary agent; contract negotiations to acquisition by an editor; editorial to design and production; and marketing, publicity, promotion, advertising, sales, special sales, subsidiary rights sales, and distribution to the bookstore. The interplay among all of these publishing functions is emphasized. The course focuses primarily on trade publishing, publishing books with market appeal.
