What NOT to Say to Your Developmental Editor
Manage episode 380681490 series 3418889
How to make the most of your editor’s feedback—even if you disagree with it.
If you want to make the most of your editor’s feedback, there’s one phrase not to say.
It’s natural. It’s normal. It’s something I’ve definitely said in other areas of my life.
But when you’re collaborating with an editor to make your novel the best it can be, this phrase won’t help you.
And in this episode, I’m sharing what this pesky phrase is and why it’s so dangerous.
You’ll learn:
- One thing not to say to your editor—and what to say instead
- 3 reasons why we want to say the wrong thing
- The qualities my best editing clients all share (hint: it’s not about their story or their skill!)
- And more!
If you’ve ever wondered how to make the most of working with an editor, this episode is for you. I hope it makes it a little easier—and more exciting!—to get an editor’s feedback.
