Many authors have received that dreaded rejection letter from a traditional Christian publisher siting platform size as the reason for the rejection.

Is there a platform size that makes you a shoo-in for a traditional Christian publisher? What if even millions of followers can’t get you a contract with a traditional Christian publisher? Is there something else going on?

In this episode, Chase Replogle and I discuss trends in Christian publishing that we’ve observed from the inside.

We’ll discuss

  • What makes a Christian publisher “Christian”
  • Questions we ought to be asking of the Christian publishing industry
  • How Christian authors can navigate the current publishing landscape

Listen in or read the blog version to get a behind-the-scenes glimpse into how Christian publishing has changed over the years.
