Eminent publisher Philip Gwyn Jones (Scribe UK, Portobello Books, HarperCollins) takes you through the decisions a commercial publisher faces when presented with a manuscript.

They have hundreds of choices to make before getting your title into the hands of a reader: from selling a book internally at acquisition meetings; to setting production, marketing and publication budgets and schedules; editorial considerations; and selling foreign and subsidiary rights. Chaired by Professor Matthew Francis.

All emerging and established writers are welcome to attend this Society of Authors/Aberystwyth University meeting.
