Whether it’s self-editing, hiring a freelance editor or working with an in-house one, once your work is sold every writer needs an editor. Why lose out to another writer because unprofessional errors and clouded meaning speak louder than your creativity? In “Working with an Editor” Robin Baskerville explores what it’s like to work with a professional editor, how to maximize the experience, how to choose the right freelance editor for you, and what to watch out for. The workshop also covers the basics of proofreader’s marks, self-editing tricks, and the industry terminology used as a manuscript moves through the production process.
