Summary: Today our guest was Stacy Ennis, writer, editor, book coach, and author of The Editor's Eye: A Practical Guide to Transforming Your Book From Good to Great. In this show, we covered a lot of detail about how to work with an editor, with a VERY big focus on this idea, which I'll put in bold because it's important: Hiring an editor is like hiring a partner, and finding the right "fit" is very, very important. (Let's just say that most of my objections to editors go away if you can find the right person who is the right fit.) We talked about how to find an editor, what to look for, what to expect to pay, and all sorts of other good stuff. Here are some resources Stacy mentioned on the show: To find editors: • The Editorial Freelancer’s Association • PublishersMarketplace • The Editors’ Association of Canada • Editcetera • BiblioCrunch To outline online: • Microsoft online (search "flow chart") • Gliffy To view the video version of this episode, go to: Self Publishing Podcast #68 - Working With Editors with Stacy Ennis
