Episode 42: Literary Agent DongWon Song on #PublishingPaidMe and Decolonization Hybrid Pub Scout Podcast

    • Business

This week, literary agent DongWon Song provides insights on the #PublishingPaidMe discussion and why decolonizing—rather than "diversifying"—publishing, really makes a lot of sense if you think about it. He also talks about how to find an agent that is right for your communication style and a writing community that will help you navigate a tough, rejection-ridden, and often inequitable industry. He also tells us what he's doing as an agent to amplify black voices.

If you are a BIPOC aspiring author or an author from another marginalized group looking for some encouragement, or an aspiring ally who wants to help dismantle white supremacy in publishing, today's interview is for you. And wherever you happen to be right now, hopefully this gets you thinking about how you can help elevate stories that have long been ignored.
