Online edition: Book Influencer and Publisher social

About the event

The Northern Fiction Alliance represents thirty northern fiction publishers of innovative, diverse and forward-thinking novels and short story collections. After the popularity of our in-person social, we have decided to hold an accessible social online.

We LOVE booksellers, librarians and book bloggers. Your reviews and recommendations make the success of our books possible. So how can we work together better?

At this Manchester social, publishers Fly on the Wall Press, Comma Press, Dead Ink Books, And Other Stories, Salt and Saraband, will present their latest 2024 book proofs and run giveaways.

We see this as an opportunity to make connections and chat about our favourite books - and perhaps organise future interviews, podcasts or event collaborations!

So if you're a podcaster, a instagrammer, book tokker, or book-pusher (hello libraries and bookshops!) and you are interested in boosting independent northern publishing across your channels, we'd love to have you.
