Retweeting in my capacity as Graduate Chair @ManoaAnthro. Great resource, along with her book proposal book📚 https://t.co/Ev3x03FYeU
It’s impossible to guarantee that your dream press will want to publish your book, but by avoiding these pitfalls you can greatly reduce your chances of rejection and hopefully at least make it to the peer review stage at the presses that make sense for your project.
Good luck!!
This is guaranteed to be an event. Hope some @ManoaAnthro students can make it (NOT limited to medical anthropologists, btw) https://t.co/vH6dJarmjz
