Print Run is a podcast created and hosted by Laura Zats and Erik Hane. Its aim is simple: to have the conversations surrounding the book and writing industries that too often are glossed over by conventional wisdom, institutional optimism, and false seriousness. We’re book people, and we want to examine the questions that lie at the heart of that life: why do books, specifically, matter? In a digital world, what cultural ground does book publishing still occupy? Whether it’s trends in the queries from writers that hit our inboxes or the social ramifications of an industry that pays so little being based in Manhattan, we’re here for it. Probably to laugh at it and call it names, but here for it nonetheless. Print Run is the happy-hour conversation after a long day at a catalog launch; it’s the bottle of wine you drink most of on a Tuesday when the manuscripts are no good. We’re for writers, for publishers, for anyone who’s opened a book and wanted to know—really know—what goes into getting the damn thing made. Join us. We’ll talk about the worst sex scene we’ve ever read and wonder aloud about how millennials will affect the books of the future. We’ll figure out why Jonathan Franzen wants to replace your child with a penguin and whether or not that penguin will be buying hardcovers when he grows up.

If you are a coach, consultant or course creator then chances are you are driven by the desire to help as many people as you can, and leave a lasting impact. You have experience that needs to be shared. Knowledge that needs to be taught. A message that needs to be heard. Plus, a business that needs to be scaled. But in the age when anyone with an opinion can shout about it on the internet, why is it that some coaches are able to cut through the noise and position themselves as true influencers with something meaningful to share? What is it that they are doing that you haven’t figured out yet? The answer, of course, is writing their book. Because writing a book is the most powerful way to position yourself as a thought leader and the go-to expert in your niche. Because when you do that, you are going to be able to 10x your influence, your impact and your income. I’m Jessica Killingley and I’m a book mentor, coach and literary agent. I work with ambitious entrepreneurs who help other people to do extraordinary things. I’m going to be sharing my experience from over two decades in publishing and everything I know about selling books, creating bestsellers, personal development, coaching and business, so that you can get a brilliant book out into the world that’s going to turn delighted readers into devoted clients.
