Abstract: We know what writers do, but what do professional editors do? Come to this session and learn how editors give shape and clarity to writing, and how they navigate the egos of their clients.
The students in this session performed informational interviews with different types of editors, including people whose job is to review manuscripts and people whose job is not to review creative writing but to review important documents that will result in people dying or getting fired if they go wrong.
Come to this session and learn about the power of words!
