So, I’ve been in the job over two months and thought it was about time I posted a blog. Let's get the introductions over - my name is Carol and I am the ‘new’ Publisher Services Officer here at Inpress. Not sure how long I can call myself ‘new’ but think it is okay in this instance! (It is my first blog, after all!)
Here is a whistle stop tour of my first couple of months at Inpress and please do bear in mind that this is only a very small selection! First big thing has to be the London Book Fair 2009. This was a great experience and also very beneficial, as I got to meet and introduce myself to quite a few of our member publishers and e-commerce members. I attended various author talks, meetings with Rachael and really interesting seminars including; International Independent Publishers Association, Independent Booksellers Week and Using Technologies.
In between the day to day jobs, I have also been looking after our new Intern – Bea. She is the first of four interns who will be at Inpress over the summer holidays.
Finally, I have made time to read some of our publisher’s books. I have dipped into Writers on Islands from Iron Press (buy it here) and Boys at War from Northway (buy it here). I am currently reading, Drowned from Five Leaves (buy it here). This book caught my eye because it is based in Ireland, where I come from originally.
So, that is it for now. Until the next time…………………
Responses to Carol's first Inpress blog (well, first ever blog really!)
