In this episode, AJ and Mike address the 800-pound gorilla in publishing: inclusivity. In this crucial episode, they’ll talk about what inclusivity means—and what it doesn’t. They’ll share their own mistakes of the past and how to move forward in a way that improves the conversation as a whole. They firmly believe in an “all are welcome” approach to their books and audiences, and invite the listener to join them on their crusade to make publishing a better, more open space.

“Can we not shy away from talking about inclusivity? It’s nothing bad. It’s not political. It’s just decency and common sense.”
—AJ Harper
“Outside our home, we have one of those big standing signs that says, ‘Welcome’ on it. I’ll look at that sign and I ask myself, is it all welcome? Or some welcome? Ask that about your book, is it all or just some?”
—Mike Michalowicz
