Book Editing : Finding a Great Editor - Episode #064

[PoetOfTheSpheres]

$500 to edit 5,000 words = $25 per page = outrageous.

Let's say you come across four editors who aren't a good match (very possible)... that would be losing two thousand dollars.

While I entirely agree that a test edit is essential, rather than just giving some editor one's whole novel, you need to get real on how to do such. A get-acquainted offer should be far, far, FAR less than the dollars you're recklessly mentioning in your video. Good general advic is spoiled from such bad details.

i am writting a book now, and i will be ready to publish it by next year.

How old do I need to be to publish a book?

[inspectorcritic]

@ShaneMarksTV1 Old enough to read and understand a contract. Most publisher don't bother to ask.
