You’ve done some Quaker Studies research – a PhD, MA, local history, or other project – and now you’d like to publish it in a book. We will explore how academic publishing works, consider your options, and provide space for you to work on a proposal.
The goal of this weekend is that you will take the next step in turning your academic research into a book. In order to do this, we’ll explore the whole process, hear from a guest speaker from an academic press, and give you space to work on your project. For many people, a key step will be the development and polishing of a book proposal for submission to a publisher.
Bring your laptop and notebook, and join a community of researchers all at a similar stage in the process to share experience and support each other. You will get feedback on your work from the course tutor and have the opportunity to learn from your peers.
On the booking form, there is a chance for you to let us know about any accessibility or communication adjustments that will enable you to participate more fully in the course. Please be clear about your requirements when booking so that we can ensure you are allocated an appropriate room.
