Thank you so much for this! It's spot-on (I didn't need to tell you that) and helps me reinforce what I know, and that I actually do know things! FWIW, I was in-house for the last 10 years and never saw a list of big books coming from a distributor, but I didn't work for a Big 5.
Kathleen, I just have to gush about how amazing your content is--and consistent!! You work so hard and we appreciate all the long hours you put into educating and enlightening us! Great stuff.
I haven’t been able to stop thinking about release day sales for Britney compared to It Starts with Us (800,000)! Coho is such a major author and to the literary side of publishing (where I live), she’s either unknown or dismissed
This is such a helpful post! Thanks so much for sharing!
Such a wonderful, informative post!

My gosh thank you so much. It means a lot to me to read your words.

It’s crazy to dismiss CoHo because the revenue her books bring it make other acquisitions possible!
Thanks for sharing all this. And, wowzers! You have a lot on your plate!
I agree--The Morning Show is so good this season!
I need to catch up on The Morning Show! I’m loving Jon Hamm in it.
Publicists gonna publicize ;) Plugging my debut Substack about the time Jon Hamm caressed (yes, CARESSED) my shoulder ;)
