Part of the How They Do It Series
Publishing has changed so much in the last five years (heck, the last two or three years), and books now come out at a faster pace. Sometimes this is wonderful, as readers can grab the next book in a new favorite series faster, but it does put additional stress on the authors. And for new writers, it can add more pressure to write and produce books faster. Karina Sumner-Smith visits the lecture hall today to share her experience with a quick release schedule, and offers some insights into knowing if this is right for you.
Karina is the author of the Towers Trilogy from Talos Press: Radiant (Sept 2014), Defiant (May 2015), and Towers Fall (Nov 2015). In addition to novel-length work, Karina has published a range of science fiction, fantasy, and horror short stories that have been nominated for the Nebula Award, reprinted in several Year’s Best anthologies, and translated into Spanish and Czech. She lives in Ontario near the shores of Lake Huron with her husband and a small dog.
Take it away Karina...
