Subscription is Entering the World of Books

It's one week after the last day of the fair and it seems that the Frankfurt Book Fair still has not really left my mind. One topic especially captured my attention: The model of subscription entering our world of literature.

It's that time of a year again...

When the whole (European) book market is looking on Frankfurt, it most certainly is time for the Frankfurt Book Fair. All important people in the business are invited to contribute to exciting discussions and to share their views on recent developments and phenomenons. Important new publications are displayed and significant contracts are made.

Let the Adventure Begin


My publishing adventure began about a year ago when I did my first internship with a publishing house. I instantly got very excited about the whole place and the wonderful people I worked with and soaked up all information like a sponge. After a couple of weeks, I was already sure that I wanted to pursue a career in the publishing business. I enjoyed reading manuscripts and looking for possible translations on the foreign market. I started to care even more about commas and full stops while doing some final proofreading and I was amazed about the opportunities digitisation offers.
