Calling all publishing professionals — aspiring and experienced! Let us help you prepare for that next opportunity! Is your "side hustle" a career advantage, an extra source of income, a passion project, or a future full-time business or career? Perhaps all of the above? Join us for a stimulating discussion of the side hustle as an advantage in your publishing career. We'll hear from a diverse group of panelists who have developed a successful side hustle in writing, editing, marketing, and publishing. Casey and Amber Aimer, both current GW Publishing students working in scholarly publishing, are publishers of an online literary magazine, Radon journal. Andrea DeWerd recently left HarperCollins to turn her freelance marketing side hustle into a full-time book marketing and consulting agency, while still working on other side projects. Michael J. Seidlinger developed his passion for writing while working for Melville House Books, Electric Literature, Publisher's Weekly, and others, into a full-time writing career, including his acclaimed novel Anybody Home? and the forthcoming Deal of The Day.
