SELLEST OSAST
In this second episode of Printed's "Department Series", join our host Vanessa Gomez and two amazing guests, Hazel Millar and Jay Millar, co-publishers at Book*hug Press, as they talk about the editorial department in a publishing house. During this conversation, they discuss the general tasks the department handles and how they are involved in creating a book.
Plus, for all those who want to join the department, there is a section with advice for your portfolio and application.
The episode also has a fun literary pop-up quiz and some encouraging words from both Hazel and Jay if you are in a tough moment of your job search.
