Author (R)evolution Day: Thriving in Turbulent Times The publishing industry is in the midst of profound change. This change is sprawling. It’s far-reaching. And it’s complex. It impacts every facet of publishing, including the rapidly evolving role of author and content creator. That’s not necessarily bad news. As an author, you have more control over your projects and your career than ever before—but to succeed, you need to understand the full extent of how this disruption in the publishing industry affects you, and the skills you need to succeed in a swiftly evolving industry. That’s why Publishers Weekly & O’Reilly Media have joined forces to create Author (R)evolution Day, bringing together authors, content creators, agents, publishers, innovators, and visionaries to mingle and to explore the evolving role of authors.
