re: Publishing, anyone?

I agree on the importance of a good editor. I'm lucky to have a friend who is a former newspaper copy editor who checks my manuscripts. Her payment: a cheeseburger, a beer & a copy of the completed book.

You’ve got a good deal then. I pay a lot more for my editor. I’m a former English teacher and I still get confused on compound words and numbers. And I’ve likely gotten lazy with my grammar. I’m sure you’ve found as I have that your knowledge of craft and technique increases with each book. I get developmental edits on my traditional publishing books, but I don’t on my indie ones. But I have to have a copy editor. I wish mine could be paid in beers and burgers. That would be awesome ??
