Thomas Dunne ♊️🍀 :
Currently studying English in college and the publishing industry was always kind of the end all goal! But, as of late, I’ve been really confused and feel like I’m honestly so lost! Any tips?

I live in London and have a degree. I absolutely hate the “no experience needed” jobs and yet somehow it’s the people with experience who get hired…

Can you talk about options for people who already went to school but not for anything related? Kind of like editing as a second career in life?

Thank you for this! Many people romanticize working in the publishing industry without understanding the exploitation

Hi! Since you don’t exactly recommend the field what would be good alternatives? I always wanted to work with books and writing so what could fit into those categories?

I’m currently in college as a nursing major, but want to switch to English to be a book editor. How do you start finding internships and getting into these entry level positions without any experience

This is something I’m afraid of since I’m currently majoring in English. I’ve really struggled to find internships and I’m lost.

Disclaimers always: this is just my opinion from my experience! Though I wouldn’t recommend it, I did gain a lot of good knowledge & skills in that industry.

Hannah :
As someone who really wants to be in publishing…it’s really bothersome how so many people in the industry don’t feel that people should be paid for their work? How in this economy can anyone do that?

Meghan Lotierzo :
What would you recommend for someone who wants to get into publishing but can’t/wont work at a big publishing house?? I’d love to volunteer with private/solo editors but how do I find them??

Uggg. . . Genuine connections do not naturally occur for the more recluse folks like myself . . . Hopefully people who read books won’t care about that as much as my book has been released this day.

I noticed the same marketing job posted in NYC at one of the big 5 offers the same $$ as one of the cheapest living spaces in America 🫠 and in this same living space, offers $100-135k for a director's starting salary whereas NYC starts at $73k

hailee :
do you have any similar careers you’d recommend? I’ve been an unpaid intern at a lit agency for almost 8 months now and although I love the work I’m not making any traction in the industry. I’d still love to work with writing/editing, but am willing to switch things up for a stable paycheck.
