Commissioning editors for Fiction are typically known for receiving submissions and collaborating with authors and agents to refine existing manuscripts. But there’s another approach. By starting with a synopsis and a clear vision for the type of book they want to publish, some publishers and imprints are commissioning authors to write fiction to brief. Ed Wood, Agent and Director of Fiction Development at The Blair Partnership, has built a range of hugely successful commercial fiction projects using this method. In this episode, we speak with Ed about his work and how this model can produce standout titles, refresh an author’s backlist, and enhance rights and licensing opportunities from day one. We also delve into how his background in writing and teaching has shaped his perspective. Exclusive offer for Podcast Listeners! Get 20% off BookMachine Campus Membership with the code BMPOD20 .

1 From Fairies to Falconry: Commissioning non-fiction illustrated titles to brief with Charles Catton, Editorial Director at Amber Books 50:01
It is a truth universally acknowledged that commissioning editors receive submissions and work with authors and agents to finesse an existing manuscript. But there’s another way.

In this episode, we speak with Amber Books’ Editorial Director, Charles Catton, about how they successfully create standout titles with this unique approach to illustrated projects. We also touch on how Charles’ role has developed over the years, the journey behind finding the right author for each project, and the behind-the-scenes from an indie publishing perspective.
