Publisher Office Hours & Monthly Substack Talks
Unsolicited Press offers two monthly live sessions for writers who want a clearer understanding of how publishing actually works. These sessions are designed to provide context, perspective, and practical insight without requiring a private consult or long-term commitment.
Publisher Office Hours
Second Wednesday of every month · $20
Publisher Office Hours is a listening-first, live group Q&A led by the publisher of Unsolicited Press.
This space is structured to remove pressure. Attendance does not require speaking, pitching, or participation beyond listening.
Questions typically address:
submissions and timing
small-press publishing pathways
platform expectations and misconceptions
publicity myths
career decision-making
common expenses writers should avoid
This session does not include manuscript critique or pitching.
75 minutes · Live on Zoom
First session starts on 1/14.
Monthly Substack Talks
Fourth Wednesday of every month · Paid
On the fourth Wednesday of each month, the publisher will host a live Substack talk focused on publishing, literary labor, and the systems writers operate within.
These talks are thematic rather than advisory, with space for reflection, discussion, and questions.
Details and access will be announced in advance on Substack.
Both offerings are intended as accessible entry points for writers seeking clarity, realism, and informed perspective on publishing without performance or escalation.
