Pop-up and movable books inhabit a very different world — one of hand-assembly\, specialist printers\, and minimum print runs that make the economics unlike anything in standard publishing. \nIn this episode\, Anna Featherstone talks with Kelli Anderson\, paper engineer and author of Alphabet in Motion\, about what it actually takes to bring a movable book to life. They cover the manufacturing process\, working with printers\, using Kickstarter to fund a 25\,000-copy print run\, and where a curious author might begin if this form is calling to them. \nThe Production & Distribution podcast stream is proudly sponsored by Gatekeeper Press URL:https://www.allianceindependentauthors.org/calendar/podcast-drop-pop-up-books-the-production-reality-behind-books-that-move-fold-and-function/ LOCATION:ALLi Podcast CATEGORIES:Podcast ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.allianceindependentauthors.org/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/BANNER_Production_Distribution_Anna.jpg-scaled.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260621T130000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260621T140000 DTSTAMP:20251116T144251Z CREATED:20251116T144251Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251116T144251Z UID:[email protected] SUMMARY:PODCAST DROP: Inspirational Indie Authors interview DESCRIPTION:Dive deep into personal stories of indie authors\, understanding their pathways to success\, challenges faced\, and lessons learned.
