BREAKFAST CLUB: EVERY TRICK IN THE BOOK

Have a great idea for an illustrated book you want to get published? Want to learn how to make an attractive proposal and get it into the right publisher’s hands? Join author/illustrator Julia Rothman as she shares her successes and mistakes. Discover the process of making a book from start to finish, including scheduling, organizing content, designing the book, and reviewing final proofs. Julia will discuss touchy subjects, from how much of an advance you can expect to understanding royalty statements. And the process isn’t over once the book hits store shelves—she will also share tips about marketing your book to the right people.

Julia Rothman has authored and co-authored The Exquisite Book, Drawn In, Farm Anatomy, The Where, the Why and the How, and the forthcoming Hello NY. She has created illustrations and pattern designs for newspapers, magazines, wallpaper, bedding, dishware, and subway posters.  She is part of the award-winning three-person design studio called ALSO and runs the blog Book By Its Cover. She lives and works from her studio in Brooklyn, New York.
