An Update on the ODE

Jeudi novembre 10, 2022

I apologize for the long break in what was supposed to be a series of monthly posts (Ode to the ODE). Part of the problem has been Life. I’ve had a busy year professionally and an even busier year personally: six weeks of travelling, my second move in a year and a beautiful new grandson. […]

How Editors Can Maximize Referrals

Jeudi novembre 17, 2022

Self-employed editors and writers appreciate repeat clients and referrals. The more we are known and visible, the easier it is to have client prospects.

“Brag docs”: An Aide-mémoire

Jeudi janvier 26, 2023

Performance reviews and discussions around compensation are part of working in house. You can’t just unilaterally change your hourly rate. If you want to get ahead, you need to be able to have uncomfortable conversations and demonstrate your value. But if you’re anything like me, remembering what you did last week, let alone last year, […]

That’s why we decided to dip our toes into the world of in-person conferences after two years of virtual success, planning a two-day event to be held June 17–18, 2023, at Toronto Metropolitan University […]

The Radical Role of Developmental Editing

Jeudi juillet 27, 2023

This post was adapted from a talk Fazeela Jiwa gave on acquisitions and developmental editing at The Festival of Literary Diversity (FOLD) this year. Writers bring the complex and embodied facets of their lives to their practice, and I approach my work as a developmental editor with this in mind. I understand editing as a […]

LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION: A Book Editor in the Land of Cinema

Mardi Décembre 4, 2012

(The first in a series on working as an editor in the film industry.) In 1966, my older sister snuck me into the Windsor Theatre to see an R-rated movie, A Man and Woman, starring Anouk Aimée as a script girl and Jean-Louis Trintignant as a car racer. After that, whenever someone asked me what […]
