Have you always been a little mystified about what it is editors do, or even terrified at the prospect of working with one? This webinar breaks down the editing process (the stages of editing) and describes the relationship between editor and author. Bottom line: there’s nothing to fear!

Marianne Ward (marianneward.ca) is a freelance book editor who, since 2007, has worked on hundreds of manuscripts for authors and publishers across Canada. She does all stages of editing from manuscript assessments to substantive editing, copy-editing, and proofreading for everything from picture books to middle-grade and adult fiction and nonfiction—even cookbooks. She is a champion of the serial comma.
