Bradley Englert: Orbit Representative
[Bradley Englert]
Bradley Englert is an Executive Editor at Orbit Books where he acquires work for the Orbit, Redhook, and Run For It lists. He has edited numerous New York Times bestsellers and has the privilege of working with authors like James S. A. Corey, Brent Weeks, John Gwynne, Joe Abercrombie, Andrzej Sapkowski, Riot Games, and many, many more. He is also working to build Run For It, Orbit’s new horror imprint, into a premiere destination for die-hard horror readers.
“Horror has long been a favorite genre of mine and many others on the team, and publishing authors such as Craig DiLouie and Andy Marino, amongst others, has certainly whetted our appetite for publishing more. It’s a genre that allows writers to experiment, push boundaries, and test the limits of fiction (and good taste). Dedicating an imprint to horror will allow us to find more new voices, more terrifying stories, and more ways to keep readers up at night.”
Come join Bradley Englert this year at Norwescon. He will be doing a Q&A session and many other panels about publishing and Orbit Books.
