Podcast – PBSummit Roundtable: Why is Everything So Slow?

The Picture Book Summit Podcast is BACK! We kick off our newest podcast with a new PBSummit Roundtable episode. Our Roundtable discussions are where our PBSummit team sits down and talks about the topics affecting picture book creators today.

In this episode, we ask the question: Why is Everything So Slow? The pandemic is (basically) over, so why are things not back to normal? Will things ever go back to the way they were or is this slowness the new normal in publishing?

Emma Walton Hamilton leads our discussions. She reached out to her agent and two of her editors for their insights on trend in children’s publishing. We hope you find this discussion fascinating and maybe a little uplifting. Ultimately, there’s some good news related to this pace.
