Workflow
This is a complex and ever-changing subject. Ways of working and styles of management seem to be neutral but are vitally important and ultimately heavily influential. They affect authors’ experiences of being published. They alter readers’ perceptions of not just of a publisher’s brand and a specific book, but also of ‘The Book’ and the publishing industry in general.
In UK book publishing it is comparatively unusual to identify specific inhouse labour costs per title; if you do not (like most publishers) work within this accounting model we simply ask that you judge our work by broad conceptions of the value we add.
