What do literary agents and editors really mean when they say, X, Y, or Z to a writer? Why don’t agents & editors just speak their minds and truly say what they mean? Most importantly: what’s actually going on in the world of book publishing? Demystifying publishing requires reading between the lines and getting an industry insider’s account.

As a literary agent in major trade publishing—at book publishing’s leading literary agency, Trident Media Group—Mark Gottlieb often walks writers through key book publishing terms & phrases, how to really be in the know, and what secretly goes on in the most exclusive corners of the publishing industry.

Beyond being an insider’s account of the publishing industry, this course serves as a light glossary of key terms, phrases and abbreviations casually tossed around in the book publishing world. Course attendees will be afforded the opportunity to share writing/publishing experiences they hope to learn and grow from, as well as terms and jargon they have come across that they were curious about exploring further.

This 90 Minute Webinar Will Cover: 

  • The language of book publishing 
  • What agents & editors really mean in their feedback 
  • The publishing marketplace and how to adapt to it
  • What industry professionals look for in authors 
  • Live Q&A
