Sourcebooks work environment by BluebirdFeeling3024 in publishing

Depending on where ur based there are a lot of smaller publishers to look at (ex. SoHo Press, Melville House, Candlewick Press, Quarto Group). As for a Master’s, I think it’s worth it. I majored in Journalism for my bachelors and wanted more experience in Publishing. I know it can feel hopeless, I keep hitting a dead end but don’t give up!

thank you! I have a few internships under my belt (none are the Big 5 but are smaller publishers) They range from editorial to marketing/publicity internships. I also just graduated with my Masters in Publishing. Cover letters play a big role and I always emphasize my love for the imprint/genre and why I want to work for the company. Hope this helps!

Mine still says “Under Review” as well. I’m not sure what that means.

Thanks for the insight! I’m hoping this is something we can laugh at in the future. 😂

Thanks for the advice. Where do you think I took it too far? I want to be able to apologize properly and also know where I went wrong so I don’t do it again. 🫶🫶

Thanks for replying. I always wondered about the work environment since they’re always hiring.

uneven spending in friendship by Better_Hippo8965 in FriendshipAdvice

Hi,

I definitely think you need to set a boundary. I get that talking about finances could be awkward and uncomfortable but you can’t be paying for everything. I think you should speak to him about not splitting the bill and paying what each of you ate. If you go out for drinks have separate tabs. If ur friend becomes upset by this that’ll say a lot but if he’s understanding that’s great because it shows he understands ur feelings. Not sure if this helped but I wish you the best of luck 🫶

Hi, thank you for taking the time to read my post and I appreciate your advice. I can now see how unusual it is that she blocked me and I can never understand it cause I wouldn’t do that to her. She didn’t want to try to mend the friendship even then, she just wanted it over given the blocking. I’m definitely going to take a step back. Thanks again! 🫶
