Guess which book was the number one new release among university press books in the United States last week?

I'm excited to be joining a copyediting class at UCLA tonight (Thursday, March 16) by Zoom to answer their questions about #copyediting #fiction, and of course The Book. It's the first of several Q&As I'll be doing over the next several weeks. I'd be happy to meet with your group or class too. Let's talk!

The Chicago Guide to Copyediting Fiction
A book-world veteran offers the first copyediting guide focused exclusively on fiction. Although The Chicago Manual of Style is widely used by writers and editors of all stripes, it is primarily concerned with nonfiction, a fact long lamented by the fiction community. In this long-awaited book from the publisher of the Manual, Amy J. Schneider, a veteran copyeditor who’s worked on bestsellers across a wide swath of genres, delivers a companionable editing guide geared specifically toward fiction copyeditors—the first book of its type. In a series of approachable thematic chapters, Schneider offers cogent advice on how to deal with dialogue, voice, grammar, conscious language, and other significant issues in fiction. She focuses on the copyediting tasks specific to fiction—such as tracking the details of fictional characters, places, and events to ensure continuity across the work—and provides a slew of sharp, practicable solutions drawn from her twenty-five years of experience working for publishers both large and small. The Chicago Guide to Copyediting Fiction is sure to prove an indispensable companion to The Chicago Manual of Style and a versatile tool for copyeditors working in the multifaceted landscape of contemporary fiction.
If you're enjoying The Chicago Guide to Copyediting Fiction, please give it a rating or review at Amazon, Goodreads, Google Books, etc. A star rating would be great; a written review even better! Thank you for your support!
