What I HATE About the Traditional Publishing Industry as a Professional Book Editor

As a professional book editor who previously worked at major US publishing houses, I have a love-hate relationship with the publishing industry. Here are the biggest traditional publishing cons as I see them, as well as general publishing advice for anyone who is working on a book project. Hopefully these publishing tips help you make the decision between traditional publishing vs. self publishing.

BIGGEST TRADITIONAL PUBLISHING CONS:
01:41 It’s old-fashioned
03:25 It’s enigmatic
04:50 It’s becoming monopolized
06:48 It’s sequestered
07:56 It’s tough to break into

ABOUT ME:

My name is Alyssa Matesic, and I’m a freelance book editor with 6+ years of book publishing and editorial experience. Throughout my career, I’ve held editorial roles across both sides of the publishing industry: Big Five publishing houses and literary agencies. This goal of this channel is to help writers throughout the book writing journey—whether you're working on your manuscript or you're looking for publishing advice.
