UK Publisher Month

As most of you already know, I am a Brit chick and so during the month of February I will be celebrating UK publishers and the books they publish. There will be posts from editors and publicists revealing some of their upcoming titles for 2011 as well as giving us a glimpse into their working lives. Of course there will also be lots of fabulous giveaways! Check out the amazing line up below!

There will be lots of reviews too, and just to whet your appetite, here is a taster of what’s to come:

and many more…

So I hope you will stop by and enjoy this fun filled month! :D

this sounds interesting. None of the mid-size publishers, though? Solaris, Angry Robot, etc…

BLHmistress – Thanks, I hope you enjoy all the posts :)

Stephanie – It's just a bit of fun, I didn't think about if publisher was small, mid or large, just talked to the publicists/editors I interact with on a regular basis. Also, I only wanted two publisher posts a week, and the rest reviews – didn't want to over saturate with just posts and giveaways. I will do this again next year and will have a different set of publishers, so maybe Solaris etc will do posts then :)

Great! I'm glad you like the idea – should be really interesting to hear about the editors/publicists jobs and what they do, as well as what's coming up in 2011 – exciting :)
