Over at The Hot Sheet, I’ve created a free publishing-focused newsfeed (automated via RSS) that gathers headlines from across the industry. It’s divided into various categories, such as industry publications, traditional publishing news sources, self-publishing news sources, international publishing news, and general books coverage.
Right now, because of the need and demand for up-to-date information related to coronavirus, there is also a dedicated section for that—including free educational publishing resources (for your kids at home), how to support booksellers, virtual book events, and more.
If you have suggestions for resources that belong in the newsfeed, contact me.
