Up next, we were joined on the #KidsConf stage by Sweet Cherry Publishing's Sanjee de Silva, and Magic Cat Publishing's Rachel Williams to discuss all things indie publishers 📚 During this panel, our delegates were asked: If you were to launch your own indie publisher to fill a gap in the current children’s market, what one word would sum up your USP? Let us know your ideas in the comments! 💡
The Cherries have had another GREAT few days 🍒 Emma and Morgan had an absolute ball at the YLG Conference up in Glasgow; lots of exciting conversations were had, and Emma led a super informative workshop on accessible publishing practices. Ugne, our Rights Executive, was living it large in Sweden, representing Sweet Cherry and all of our wonderful brands at Gothenburg Book Fair! The fun doesn't end there, however - if you're at The Bookseller Children's Conference today, please do swing by our stand and say hello... we have sweets! For an independent publisher, we sure do get around, don't we?#GBF24 #GothenburgBookFair #YLGConference #YLGConf24
We're so very proud of Emma, Head of Every Cherry, for being recognised by The Publishers Association at this year's People of Publishing Awards. Since launching Every Cherry, we've received so much love and appreciation, and all of this really makes us want to spread even more magic. So, how can you get involved? Are you a brand or person truly interested in being SEND-friendly and accessible to ALL readers? Do you want to 'walk the walk' instead of just talking the talk? Or, are the rising numbers of SEND children merely an interesting statistic to you? Every Cherry is on a mission to remove ALL barriers to reading, and we invite you to join us. Whether you want to utilise our team of experts and make your products (and business) accessible, or you just want to have a chat and learn how you can cater more to the SEND community, we're here to help. We don't want to be the gatekeepers or blockers for this community, and we would love to see all brands (both in publishing and outside of it) becoming SEND-friendly. Are you up for the challenge? We're certainly not afraid of the hard work. Will you: Keep scrolling? Or Direct message us and begin your journey of making a real difference to every child? The choice is yours - why not make the sweet one?#EveryCherry #AccessiblePublishing #SEND #CherryChallenge
Looks like Matt, our Senior Licensing Designer, is a TRUE Mula enthusiast! Here he is at #BLE24 yesterday, posing next to his idols in his handmade Mula t-shirt … now that’s what we call a stylish crew #Licensing #ChildrensPublishing
What an exciting day the team had yesterday! Not only did we absolutely SMASH day one of #BLE24 and chat to some great licensing friends, old and new, but our very own Emma Steel was awarded a People of Publishing award from The Publishers Association ... what an amazing achievement!? Emma's success wholeheartedly shows why we're so dedicated to bringing new talent into the publishing industry; you never know what someone is capable of until you give them the opportunity to show you. After 17 years as a teacher, Emma came to us with a mere idea, and she's now Head of Every Cherry, one of the most groundbreaking imprints of recent years. Well done, Emma - incredibly well deserved #EveryCherry #AccessibleBooks #LicensedPublishing
