In our 16th episode of The Nerd Count Podcast, we welcome Theresa DeLucci to talk about the inside secrets of the publishing industry. We talk about how she got started working in publishing as a marketer, how people are still reading, especially genre, but the numbers of places to buy books have shrunk, how we first met Theresa, writing short fiction, selling a story to Ellen Datlow, the gratifying hard work of working in publishing, the struggles of a shrinking industry, traditional publishing and indie authors, how she markets books, how she helps authors market themselves, how author publicity events can sometimes “move the needle”, how there is no “formula” for success, self-promotion for authors, the brutality of the “Algorithm”, the benefits of writing an “author letter”, her non-fiction reviews of media, reading for the Year’s Best Horror, some upcoming books she’s excited about, pansting vs. plotting, her love of oysters!, and more!
