Editors from Tangent Publishing introduce their new imprint Tangent and discuss book publishing more generally.

This was a workshopping event where participants submitted their draft book pitches and short book proposals. Panelists Nandini Pandey (Johns Hopkins University), Francesca Martelli (UCLA), Verity Platt (Cornell University), and Scott McGill (Rice University) provided feedback in breakout rooms.

Panelists Sarah Nooter (editor-in-chief of Classical Philology or CP) and Irene Peirano Garrison (co-editor of TAPA) gave an overview of the journal publication process, followed by an interview facilitated by Suzanne Lye (co-chair of the WCC). In the final portion of the session, Sarah and Irene answered questions from attendees.

Topics covered include: an overview of the review process, the role of the editor, the role of reviewers and what they can expect, timelines for reviewing articles, giving feedback, and tips & advice.
