BAPC | Rakia Clark | Episode 96 | ”Big Player”

BAPC × Rakia Clark

What's beautiful about book land is its expansive nature. An aspiring literary citizen doesn't just have to work toward becoming an author. They can work toward becoming a publisher, a publicist, a marketer, a salesperson, even an editor. In this episode we had the pleasure of speaking with The Great One herself, Rakia Clark, Executive Editor at Mariner Books (HarperCollins) about her route to becoming an executive editor, the type of books she likes to acquire, what it means to stay true to her tastes, what's hot in the world of book publishing, and more.
