Collaborative Innovation in Manuscript Development

In this episode, we are joined by Kobo's own CEO, Michael Tamblyn! MT has been in the book business for much of his career, and he was directly involved with the founding of Kobo and its launch in 2010. MT is our "content guy" and is passionate about books and bookselling – including indie publishing. In this illuminating interview, we get to hear all about MT's career, his thoughts on reading and publishing, insights into bookselling, and so much more.

We talked to MT about his start in the book business, his part in the creation of Kobo Writing Life, where he thinks the book business and publishing industry is going, the twenty-five year digital reading revolution, climbing mountains of death, the importance of indie authors and publishers, and, of course, a mention of MT's boxing match with Rachel.
