FutureBook 2015 have announced the full programme for their inaugural Author Day on 30 November. With sessions focused on meaningful dialogue and discussion, and speakers addressing important issues for authors such as income, diversity and reaching new audiences, this event places authors at the centre of the contemporary publishing conversation.
Author Day extends a warm welcome to both independent and traditionally published authors, as well as to their agents and publishers.
The Writing Platform will support the comment-capture desk throughout the day, as conference delegates and speakers engage in an interactive message-building session aimed at creating a statement for the international publishing community. Input will include conference delegates’ proposals, questions, concerns and ideas.
Key findings from the day will be presented at the FutureBook Conference on 4 December.
