#EricFest sponsored by & with talks from @PRHCareersUK / @PenguinUKBooks @HachetteUK & @panmacmillan
๐๐๐
At @SomersetHouse with @SYP_LDN
Such a privilege speaking about breaking into publishing when coming from a non-traditional background at #ERICfest today, alongside phenomenal @PenguinUKBooks colleagues.
Inspired and honoured to spend the day with future industry leaders - publishing NEEDS more of us. ๐ช
It needs to be organic: diversity needs to be seen at every level, not just writers. It also relies on the company culture and the people behind the books that are being published. @panmacmillan @eric_festival #EricFest
.@nikeshshukla Publishers need to start with their long terms goals, instead of a knee-jerk reaction to diversity. It will be interesting to see how diversity initiatives work out. Weโre in an interesting time that now feels different. @panmacmillan @eric_festival #EricFest
.@nikeshshukla We need more reflections, and the people who live in Britain need to be seen, and to see themselves in books. #EricFest @eric_festival
Up next we have @panmacmillan with three amazing speakers delivering @TEDTalks style talks for us! @nikeshshukla is up first! #EricFest @eric_festival
Donโt wait for the opportunities to come to you. Showcase your work on social media, get yourself out there. Write it for yourself, or the people you have in mind to read it. @CandiceC_W @HachetteUK #EricFest @eric_festival
.@CandiceC_W wrote #Queenie also working in a senior level, full time job. For Candice it was about being disciplined. If you have a goal in mind you just have to keep going. Portion off your time into work time and free time. Realise what you can and canโt do. #EricFest
How do you showcase transferable skills? Create your own opportunities: If youโre an aspiring editor, you could start a blog taking excerpts of books and comment on how you might have edited those sections differently. @HachetteUK #EricFest @eric_festival
A technical background is also very much needed, and using tech in a creative way. Youโll always be learning. Social media is also key, and having evidence in your life of creative projects youโve worked on, especially for marketing. #EricFest @eric_festival @HachetteUK
Weโre now here with @HachetteUK and the inimitable @CandiceC_W!
Candice is interviewing the Hachette team, and weโre learning all about getting into publishing. Already reading lots of books is a top tip... #EricFest
As an author, the hardest part for Derek was knowing what was being discussed between his Editor and Agent. Additionally, the rejections and just trying to keep going. #EricFest @eric_festival
Derek Owusu: no matter how many knockbacks you get, how many gatekeepers you need to go through, you need to keep focussed on that one thing, keep going and donโt let it stop you.
We are HERE for this message! ๐ช#EricFest @eric_festival
