‘This is a must read for anyone moving into the editorial space. Most of us learn on the job, and it takes both time and trial and error to build up editorial experience. Kathy’s book can help short cut many of the steps we go through. Indeed, as I was reading it, there was often a knowing smile on my face as I nodded yes, yes, yes. I could relate to so many of these experiences. I certainly encourage anyone new to editorial work to read this book. Thank you Kathy for taking the time to write this.’
