21.01.2022 It can be lonely and isolating being a First Nations or person of colour working in the Australian publishing industry. The FNPOC in Publishing Network is a place for us to connect, gather, support each other and share experiences and insights in a safe environment. We welcome members from all levels who identify as FNPOC and work in editorial, sales, marketing, design, administration, publicity and production roles at any Australian publishing houses and journals and/or wor...king freelance. We also welcome any FNPOC agents and scouts. Together, we hope to be a vital and valuable resource for all members to navigate the myriad complexities of the Australian publishing landscape while being a person of colour. Our network is a closed, moderated group with an anonymous membership list. Accessibility and the cultural safety and support of all members are our guiding principles. For all inquiries or to join, please email: [email protected]
