Have you ever wondered who makes the decision to publish a book? And what happens after that? Cynthia will guide you through the full process, from manuscript to finished book (and ebook). As part of this process, she will tell you about the role of the editor: What is it like to edit the work of a famous writer? Or to introduce a new and exciting author to the world? Being an editor is an incredibly satisfying career. But there are problems. You work for the publisher, but often your loyalty is to the writer. What are the issues that arise from that? How much change to a manuscript is acceptable? And how much say does the writer have in the publishing process?
The Dorot Program is sponsored by a gift from Elen Steinberg in memory of her father Vladimir Steinberg, z”l
