Of all the blogs out there, this one contains all the details about the skills, experience, responsibilities, duties, types of work, and how to get started as an editor. Whatever is relevant can be found in this blog.
In his blog, the blogger explains in detail how we can become an editor even if our major is not related to literature. We just need to improve our writing skills, strengthen our literary skills and familiarize ourselves with industry intelligence.
In addition, he lists four general categories of editors and the tasks of each. For example, developmental editors, line editors, copy editors and proofreaders.
Finally, how to get started in traditional book editing.
He says freelance editing may sound easier. However, interning at a traditional publisher is not difficult for college students and emerging editors. The connections you make during your internship can easily lead you to a traditional book editing position - it's all about who you know.
Or, look up book editing jobs in your area. Even if you don't plan on applying right away, it's helpful to know what different publishing companies require in terms of portfolio, years of experience, references, etc.
Keep in mind that there are more editing positions available than just book editing. Do you prefer editing short-form content or website copy? Advertising agencies and small businesses are always looking for website copy editors for these positions.
That's all for my blog. Thank you, and goodbye.
