Are you working on a book proposal, revising and rewriting a dissertation into a book manuscript, trying to choose the best publisher for your book, or in the midst of negotiating a contract?

If you have questions about any aspect of the book publishing process, then join John Kulka, Executive Editor-at-Large at Harvard University Press, for Q&A and discussion over lunch. An editor for twenty-five years, John is especially committed to publishing in humanities and history. His recent biographies of Stephen Crane, Thomas Malthus, and Edmund Burke were all reviewed in  this summer’s New York Times Book Review.  He has published translations of Vergil, Camus, and Sartre, widely praised studies of Dickens and Shakespeare, and  founded the Annotated Austen Series for Harvard University Press.
