5 - ANATOMY OF A BESTSELLER, PT 2 with Richard Swan

from Publishing Rodeo: The Good, The Bad, and the Bloody Ugly

Both Richard and Sunyi hit the Sunday Times list right out the gate in the UK. How does that happen? Who gets to decide, and what does it mean? We explain how the Sunday Times lists work in the UK, the importance of crates (and other independent gatekeepers), and why the list is both hard to hit without orchestrated support. Additionally, we discuss what authors should be most afraid of, and what we wish publishers would openly say.
