This program is sponsored by the University Press of
Kentucky.
Visit with the University Press of Kentucky’s staff to learn
about the ins and outs of publishing. The publishing panel will
showcase the entire publication process, including crafting a proposal, the
critical revision stage, the importance of an author’s platform, and discussion
about finding the right publisher/agent for your work.
