In this conversation, I interview Joanna Thurlow, a developmental editor, about her journey into editing, the role of a developmental editor, and the intricacies of the editing process. Joanna shares insights on feedback styles, the importance of character development, and the challenges of querying. We discuss the balance between showing and telling in writing, the impact of editing on personal writing, and the flexibility of writing across genres. 

Joanna is offering a discount for listeners seeking developmental editing services. Email her mention the show! [email protected]
