A huge array of discussion on the pod this week featuring the lovely Lizzie Huxley-Jones and Vanessa Peterson from 3 of Cups Press. We discuss the lack of diversity in the publishing industry, redefining anthologies and unpaid internships. 

Taking a look at the publishing industry from a micro-publishers perspective; we discuss the genesis of 'On Anxiety' to receiving the final product! How can such a small publisher afford to produce an anthology, pay their contributors, yet still afford to pay themselves? If a small publishing press can do this, can we really excuse larger firms? 

Plus, further discussion about the first time we noticed that there was a lack of diversity and inclusivity within the publishing industry. 

Also today, we learn what inspires 3 of Cups press; their creative fountain, what/who they turn to for inspiration - from the contributors of 'On Anxiety' to lunchtime walks in the V&A.
