Are you currently on submission? Have you ever wondered what the acquisitions process is really like? If so, chapter fifty-one of Literary Blend is for you. Jamie Ryu, a former editorial assistant at Macmillan and HarperCollins, joined me on the show to chat all about this mysterious stage in the publishing process. From editors evaluating submissions to offers of publication, we covered each step of a book’s acquisitions journey. I truly can’t thank Jamie enough for sharing her knowledge and insights. This chapter is a priceless peek behind the curtain at what actually goes on at traditional publishing houses when books are being considered for publication.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
