LitFest - From Query to Shelf: A Publisher's Perspective (with Liz Pellitier of Entangled Publishing)

Join Liz Pelletier, Publisher at Entangled Publishing, for an insider's tour of the journey a book makes from pitch to purchase; starting with what an editor thinks while reading an inbox full of queries, through the acquisition process, to sales pitches, distribution, and finally working with retail chains for shelving.

This is one of many events happening this month for LitFest 2021. For a full breakdown of other programs, visit: www.metrolibrary.org/litfest
