The Rise of the Small Press on the Man Booker Shortlist | Literary Hub

Has success or attention changed the way any of these presses work or approach new authors? Unanimously, no-if anything, the publishers declare themselves and their individual approaches endorsed by the recognition. Duffy says Bluemoose's approach is the same as always: to publish "what we fall in love with. Publishing is very simple! It's finding readers that's tricky." Jordison says: "Prizes aren't only good for presses like ours and to help get books attention. They're great for the writers. Obviously we think they're wonderful artists, but it's incredibly rewarding for them to know the judges loved their work. The positive effect it has on authors is not to be underestimated."
