PW3009 Publishing 3: Small Press Publication
ASSESSMENT: A self-reflective essay + individual publication strategy
POSSIBLE TUTOR(S): Mary Chamberlain
Mandatory for Professional Writing Students, optional for others
This module is the third of three ‘publishing’ modules across the course of the programme, and in
this case students will work together as a publishing team contributing to the production of a
hard-copy publication. As such they will work through the various stages of submission, reader
evaluation, editing, proofing, layout design, and eventual printing and publication. They will also
work on creating a strategy for maximising the readership of said publications. By the end of the
process students will have utilised a significant number of publishing skills, widened their
understanding of the practicalities of publishing, as well as broadened their knowledge of the
publishing industry per se.
