We talked about how the publishing world has had to change to adapt to the “discoverability” of books by readers. Social media has played a big role in that. We also talked about the process at D & M to get published. New writers can submit unsolicited manuscripts, and Anna has some great insights into how to make the decision between going with a traditional publisher or with a self-publishing company. D & M publishes a wide range of genres but is focused Canadian authors who write about topics or stories that are of interest to Canadians.
