The State of It! Conversations on Publishing

• What is the impact of AI on the world of books?
• Why are authors concerned?
• How do you get published in this current climate?
• Do you need an agent or can you go solo?
• Which is better: self-publishing or traditional?
• What makes a bestseller?
• Is the book becoming extinct?

To find the answers to these burning questions join author, Syd Moore, as she discusses the current state of the UK publishing industry with experts and professionals.

The afternoon opens with a discussion with literary agent Sandra Sawicka from the Marjacq agency (biography below). The second panel will comprise Julian Ball, Head of Sales at One World Publications; Daniel Newman, author of DJ Chronicles Trilogy (self-published). We will also be joined by Blanche Carbello, marketing consultant, whose work explores the evolving landscape of the publishing industry, examining the impact of AI, the rise of self-publishing, and the growing popularity of audiobooks and eBooks.
