Arvon at Home Writing Week: Preparing for Publication with Ana Fletcher and James Spackman
Mon 1 Feb 2021 to Fri 5 Feb 2021
Is your fiction project ready to share with the world? We will guide you through every stage of the publication process, from traditional publishing – how it works and how you can work it – to the pros and cons of self-publishing and crowdfunding.

How do you grab an agent’s attention? How do advances and royalties work? What does a PR campaign do for your book, and how should authors engage with social media? We’ll help you learn how to tackle your inner critic, edit your own work effectively, and polish your pitch to perfection.

Ana Fletcher is a senior editor at Jonathan Cape, an imprint of Penguin Random House, where she acquires, edits and publishes literary fiction. Ana joined Cape from the independent press And Other Stories. 

James Spackman trains publishers in presentation and copywriting. He has worked in sales, marketing and management at Bloomsbury and Hodder amongst others. He is a publisher of cycling books with Profile and is co-founder of the new non-fiction agency bks.
