SUMMARY:Turning a Dissertation into a Book Manuscript
LOCATION:Room 1.502
DESCRIPTION:How do I turn my dissertation into a book manuscript that attra
 cts a publisher’s attention? Many young scholars struggle after their defen
 se to convert their detailed and frequently theoretically dense dissertatio
 n into a book manuscript that big presses consider worth publishing. In thi
 s panel, we seek to address the biggest problems in the process as well as 
 possible solutions. The panel seeks to raise the following questions:\n\n- 
 What are publishers looking for in a book manuscript, especially if it is t
 he author’s first monograph?\n- How do I find the appropriate press for my 
 book manuscript on Southeast Asia?\n- How to draft a promising book proposa
 l from a dissertation manuscript that may still be too long?\n- Which secti
 ons to cut and which to elaborate before I submit the proposal?\n- What hap
 pens after my proposal is accepted?\n- Where do I find help during the conv
 ersion process?\n\nModerated by Benjamin Baumann.
