Welcome to the Women Writing podcast. In this episode, I sit down with Latitude 46 Publishing publisher, and Wordstock Sudbury Literary Festival director, Heather Campbell. We chat about the joy in publishing, the current state of publishing, and what authors should know about the publisher/author relationship, plus a behind the scenes glance at the workings of a small press.
“I’ve wanted to do this my whole life and I’ve finally figured out how.”
Heather Campbell has combined her education, experience and ‘need to initiate’ by stimulating the literary arts in northern Ontario. She founded and is the current festival director for Wordstock Sudbury Literary Festival now in its 11th year, and owner/publisher of Latitude 46 Publishing, a literary trade publisher with over 50 titles published since 2015. She was recognized in 2017 for her entrepreneurship by the YWCA Sudbury’s Women of Distinction award and in 2023 received the Margaret Philips Award from the North Western Ontario Writers Workshop (NOWW) for outstanding contributions to publishing, promoting, or supporting the literature of Northwestern Ontario.
