Publishers Weekly newsletters

Here are the latest Publishers Weekly newsletters for my followers to take a look at:

If you’re a publishing professional like me, you’re inviting clients and prospects to meet at the Javits Center during the New York Rights Fair and BookExpo.

Probably you’ve received a number of invitations. Your schedule is booking up.

Now that the NYRF International Rights Center is located adjacent to BookExpo at the Javits, the world’s at your feet.

How can your business benefit?

Two sessions in particular I want to tell you about, taking place Wednesday (May 29):
  • International Blockbusters – a very popular session analyzing how translations become global bestsellers: four bestseller case studies
  • Foreign Rights and Scouting – scouts and specialists working for both publishers and literary agencies give the inside scoop on selling foreign rights
Plus, timely international issues are the core focus of these two, also taking place on Wednesday:
  • Market Focus: Brexit and the U.K. Book Biz – What Does It Mean?
  • Identifying Audiences for International Literature – how to promote translated books to more readers
Read more about the international program.

I think you’ll agree this day promises to benefit your business, beginning with the opening talk from Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine executives and continuing with these encompassing analyses of the international book market.

See you there!

Sincerely,
Krista Rafanello
#NYRF19 Show Manager

NY Rights Fair 2019
The New York Rights Fair Is Heating Up!
Hello Sunshine comes to New York Rights Fair to address how the company plans to work with book people—from publishers to agents to editors and more!
We’re pleased to announce the #NYRF19 Opening Talk speakers:

NYRF19_HelloSunshine_headshots.png
Driven by a singular mission to change the narrative for women, Reese Witherspoon's company initially made a name for itself in literary circles as a production company dedicated to female authorship and storytelling. Her rapidly expanding company, Hello Sunshine, now traffics in film, television, audio, social and digital channels, and boasts an influential book club with nearly 500,000 (and growing) followers.

Join us to hear directly from the change artists who are changing the face of Hollywood production and content consumption.

Publishers, editors, literary agents and rights professionals can learn about what Hello Sunshine sees in its future, and how to work with the female-friendly company that produces scripted and unscripted television, premium cable, streaming shows and feature films, podcasts and audio storytelling.

Listen to what some of the participants from last year said
about the NYRF programming:
“The NYRF is a must for anyone in publishing hoping to expand their audience base and connect with business leaders. If networking is the key to success, then there is no other place to develop associations vital to staying out front in our competitive market. We will definitely be returning next year.”
—ALEXANDREA WEIS, VESUVIAN BOOKS, NEW ORLEANS

“In London and in Frankfurt, I’m so busy with meetings that I don’t get the opportunity to attend the programs or panels there. I really appreciate the programming here.”
—LORI ANTONSON, THE AXELROD AGENCY, CHATHAM, NY
