Beyond the Edit: Project Managing Skills for Publishing Professionals Webinar

Editing today extends far beyond language and style. Editors are often responsible for coordinating people, timelines, files, and feedback—whether or not they carry a formal project management title.

Which brings me to the final lap

Not all #writing is appealing to all #readers. People want different genres (itself a hot mess) different topics, different styles, and will tolerate or demand different levels of editing stringency.

The best a writer can do is find the audience for whom the content, style, and level of editing is satisfying.

The best thing you #bookbloggers #editors #bookreviewers can do to help, is to connect those two groups. Help #readers find their #writers

SO MANY SHENANIGANS! #ZaPWhamPow #BookishChallenge #writers #readers #editors #inclusive #creatives #bookish #books #indie #trad

“Disgraced former minister, peer & key #Starmer adviser Peter #Mandelson has tried to #exploit #editors#code clauses usually reserved for grieving families to demand freedom from #media #scrutiny over his ardent relationship with serial child-rapist Jeffrey #Epstein. It hasn’t worked out too well”
