Developmental Editing with Scott Norton

An additional reason to join the Zoom! We’ll be giving away 3 copies of the new edition of Scott’s book, Developmental Editing! Grab a spot today!

Have you ever received an unsolicited manuscript that would be a perfect match for your list if only it were better written? Or a first draft for which you paid a substantial advance that doesn’t come up to snuff? Have you ever been assigned a project for production and discovered serious problems of organization or argument in the text?

In this session, Scott Norton will present nine critical factors to weigh when considering whether to engage a developmental editor. From assessing the project’s potential to successfully executing a developmental plan, he’ll outline the basics and then invite attendees to pose questions.
