Goat Hill Writers presents “The Publishing World,” a conversation between author and publisher Kaylie Jones and novelist Taylor Polites.

4pm talk, 5:30pm cocktail reception

Jones has had a 25-year career as a novelist and writer of memoir. Two years ago, she began her own imprint, Kaylie Jones Books, with Brooklyn-based publisher Akashic Books. Jones will talk with Polites about the publishing world as she sees it from both sides of the table. Ample time will be allowed for questions and a cocktail reception will take place immediately after the talk.
