The Book's Publishing Journey - podcast

Traditional publishing involves many steps and a lot of details along the way. Senior editor Beena Kamlani walks us through the book publishing journey to describe how a book gets published. The players involved: the acquiring editor, advocate for its potential; senior editor, who line edits and works with the author on storytelling details; managing editor, who copy edits and finalizes; design, where the look is created; production, where typsetting occurs; bindery, for book binding. It can take nine months to one year to move through these stages.
