Subjectivity and marketability are tightly intertwined in the publishing industry. I’m beyond honored to bring you an informative and entertaining conversation with Rachel McMillan on these blended topics for chapter six. During our chat, we cover the pros and cons of subjectivity, finding a balance between writing a book of your heart and fitting the market, comp titles, word count expectations, and so much more. I’m grateful Rachel took the time to join me on the show to share her knowledge as both an author and literary agent, so I hope my conversation with her gives you valuable information about subjectivity and marketability in publishing.
