For the second year, I was a member of the selection panel for English manuscripts submitted to the Publishing Hub initiative. This involved evaluating novels, non-fiction manuscripts and children's books, writing reviews of each one, and motivating for the one or two that I felt to be the most appropriate, in the context of a collegial team.
