Will you be joining us today at 1pm? There’s only a few spaces left, so make sure to grab the last few tickets if you’d like to attend this virtual expert-led session 📝

Editing is a vital part of the writer’s process, but how do you actually do it? In this online event with Sam Eades, a freelance editor with twenty years’ experience in trade publishing, we will delve into all aspects of the editing process, from ensuring your story is structurally sound to deciding which of your characters deserve time on the page and ending your book with a bang.

Sam will also talk about the relationship an author has with their editor, the role the Editor plays in the traditional publishing process and how this differs and works alongside the agent relationship.

@samanthaeades will be in conversation with @kelly_weekes and there will be plenty of time in the session to answer your questions. We look forward to seeing you there!

This workshop is free for Byte The Book members and £25* for everyone else.

We had an incredible night at the @century_soho celebrating a new platform at our London event: Launching BookBindr – an exciting new way of collaborating in publishing, brought to you by Byte The Book and Bookswarm 📚  We had wonderful evening full to the brim with networking, discussion, and making meaningful connections across the industry. We heard from publishing experts during the panel as they explored the future of publishing and how authors can work with different professionals in the publishing industry to get their books out in the world and read! #BookBindr

This special panel was chaired by @_thebookseller’s Editor Philip Jones, with our two  speakers and co-founders of BookBindr: @justinesolomons - director and founder of Byte The Book, and Simon Appleby (@bookswarm1977) - founder of Bookswarm.

Our special panel discussed the future of publishing following the rise of the independent author and the pandemic’s legacy on the publishing industry’s workforce. This led on to explore how BookBindr aims to connect publishers and authors with "skilled, vetted industry freelancers".

Special thanks to @phoebeirelandphotography for taking these brilliant event photos for us. 📸

Huge thank you to @hwfisher for sponsoring our event and to @century_soho for hosting us!
