Ep. 193 - Gollancz Deputy publisher Gillian Redfearn on what catches her eye as an editor

Watch this episode as a full video interview on our YouTube channel

Gillian Redfearn is deputy publisher at Gollancz, publishing authors from Joe Abercrombie to Brandon Sanderson.

We had a great chat with Gillian, hearing how she broke into the publishing industry, what. the day-to-day of an editor involves, and what sort of stories catch her eye when they are submitted by agents. Plus, we find out that she was less than impressed with Joe Abercrombie's first chapter... but fortunately she kept on reading!
