26 Jan 2012: The long shadow
This weekend’s seminar hinges on readings from Charles Dickens – it’s operating under a long shadow. Dickens spent four years at the end of his life as a showman, on exhausting reading tours, doing the voices of his characters for audiences of thousands; he read from special scripts, and drew on prodigious experience in amateur dramatics. The tours went from Spring 1866 and 1867 (around Britain) to the American tour, December 1867–March 1868, the farewell tour of Britain, October 1868–April 1969, to his last readings in London in 1870, with just months to live. His doctor was present and medical notes record that his pulse soared whenever he gave a reading.
So hundreds of readers gathered last night in Bertlemann’s HQ. Trays of apple and orange juice at the 'umble address of Unter den Linden 1, Dickens in the air and a whiff of AS Byatt were things to get the heart racing. Cue Dan Franklin, from Random House UK, a bro of Bertelmann. He drew on experience to give an overview of the dramatic changes taking place in publishing today.
John Forster was a prototype for the literary agent, Franklin started: he was Dickens’ first reader, his advisor, and he negotiated with publishers on Dickens’ behalf. Agents now increasingly are going for e-book lists, bypassing the publisher; what happens when self-publishing (Amanda Hocking being the prime example) enables writers to bypass the agents and traditional publishers altogether? 'These questions fill hundreds of blogs and hundreds of column inches every day, and most of these are completely ignorant.’ (do read on!)
Franklin went on to list how the role of the publicity and marketing departments at publishing houses are giving way to new forms of communication (a polite word for promotion) between writers and readers: writers increasingly need to talk to bloggers, be available for author podcasts, be on Twitter and Facebook publicity departments are directed to 'curating' author websites. Dickens, with his gruelling reading tours, was totally into connecting with his readers; if he was around today, he would have been an avid tweeter. ‘If Stephen Fry has 3.7 million followers, imagine how many Dickens would have had?’
