In this week’s episode of The Bookshop at the End of the Internet, freelance editor Jessica Hatch discusses her journey through the publishing world, some common mistakes that authors tend to make, and the various types of edits that a book goes through on its way to being published. Jessica got her start in publishing in the hallowed halls of some of New York City’s biggest publishing institutions. She worked her way through many slush-piles and learned how to successfully market books. Today, she puts her knowledge and experience to good use helping her clients edit and revise their manuscripts and market their own books. If you are a writer or you want to become a writer, or even if you are simply curious about the world of writing and publishing, this episode is for you. All writers, wherever they are on their writing journey, must experience that inevitable stage in the publishing process known as editing. Some love it, some loathe it. But everyone must do it, and we can all get better at it. Tune in to hear Jessica chat about different types of editing resources (including some resources available on her website and her own online courses) to help authors make life easier for themselves and their editors.
