As of late, everyone I’ve talked to in publishing has been saying the same thing: it feels like we are at a particular inflection point, but no one knows quite what it is or where we’re going.
I love how earnest, full of rage and hope this was. The emergence of Galley Brag on substack has changed how I think about books (no exaggeration). Your NL is so fun and silly (which we all need) but also so passionately serious about books and what hope and change they can bring, and that is a hard line to walk. You should be really proud of it - I LOVE that your partner said he's not seen you this excited about publishing in years because I can feel that (!) even though I have no idea how your years in publishing have been for you! Galley brag 4eva x
also some out here needs to be trying to work out whats going in with publishing and you're just doing IT by speaking to people in all corners of the book-world and it is admirable in all the ways
This was so lovely and you said it ALL so well. Truly earnestly mean it when I say your perspective here has made this a better space!!!
