Diné writer and filmmaker Ramona Emerson joins us to discuss her second novel, Exposure, a follow-up to her National Book Award–longlisted Shutter. The thrillers are informed by Emerson’s years of experience as a crime scene photographer in Albuquerque. Emerson will be joined by editor Nick Whitney to discuss the path from a successful debut to the acquisition of the second book, polishing the manuscript, and building Emerson’s readership. With moderator Lily Philpott, we’ll hear about Emerson’s approach to fiction and how her publisher, Soho Crime, supports her work.
As a case study of the path to publication, From Manuscript to Marketplace offers candid talks between an author and members of their publishing team about each step of the publication process: acquisition, editorial, marketing, and more.
A Q&A will follow the presentation; you can pre-submit a question when registering for the event. A recording will be made available for those who cannot attend live.
The event will take place via Zoom with automatic closed captioning. To request any other accessibility features, please email support@authorsguild.org and we will make every effort to accommodate.
With support from the National Endowment for the Arts and our donors, the Authors Guild Foundation is pleased to offer this program free to the public.
