Description
To kick off the 2024-2025 FOLD Academy season, writer and literary agent Hana El Niwairi joins us to discuss foreign rights and international publishing.
Most writers are often focused on honing their craft, breaking into the industry wherever you reside, or maintaining their publishing career at home. But at some point, you may wonder what else is out there and where else in the world your writing can travel. This workshop is an entry point into the world of international publishing and what is commonly referred to as foreign rights. Come learn about the ways authors may be published in different countries and what that process could look like.
This session will be closed-captioned. Closed captioning provided by Zoom auto transcription.
This session will be followed by a Q&A.
