What is editing? What are we supposed to be looking for?
Emily will take you through the basics of how she edits novels for her clients, and suggest exercises and techniques that can help you organise your own book and mind more effectively. You’ll learn how lists can be your best friends, how plot arcs are essential and the basics of fine tuning your book by deconstructing and reconstructing your story.
Emily is a writer, proof-reader, and freelance editor based in Cornwall, UK. She helps her clients with Proofreading (academic journals, lifestyle articles, blogs, non-fiction, memoirs, fiction, and more), structural edits on manuscripts, copy and line edits on manuscripts and manuscript feedback.
She studied Creative Writing at Falmouth University before going on to complete a Masters in Writing for Young People from Bath Spa, where she wrote her first novel and learned insights into the publishing industry.
After completing her studies, she found she missed talking about her love of reading with others and became a blogger for her local independent bookshop Lost in Books and co-founded PaperBound Magazine, an online publication dedicated to showcasing creative talent from writers and illustrators, specialising in children’s and young adult fiction.
