| Cwarner | Posted – 1/23/2008 11:36:40 PM | show profile | email poster I'm very new to the book publishing industry (graduated 2006, at my entry-level job now), and while I love the editorial work I'm doing, and I hopefully will continue to do, I think I'm done with New York for the time. I went to college here, then lived here for two years, and I really want to move out to the west coast, preferably the Pacific Northwest. But, I want to stay with this profession. Does anyone what kind of publishing circles are out there? I know there are many publishers in CA, but I'm hesitant because most are in high-cost areas, similar to NYC. I would love to live in Seattle or Portland, but I feel like it's naive to think that I can relocate there with a book publishing job. Am I right? Or can anyone offer me some hope? Thanks! |
