In this episode we’re joined by Nellie McKesson, founder of publishing software startup Hederis and owner of tuxedo cat Cool Runnings! (emphasis ours) Nellie started her career on a Craigslist link and a prayer at a tiny math journal publisher in Boston. From there, she moved on to production editing at O’Reilly Media, and then to Macmillan, helping usher the company into the twenty-first century by building them automated toolchains. Now she’s based in our fair city of Portland, OR, and heading up Hederis, a book publishing software startup that she hopes will bring the magic and intuitiveness of automated publishing to everyone. We also chat with her about the importance of making ebooks accessible to disabled folks, the eternal question of whether she considers print or ebooks superior, and why spending the day alone in a classroom reading is the ideal field trip.
