O knihe

IF YOU WRITE FICTION, YOU NEED THIS BOOK
Whether you self-publish or publish traditionally, you want your book to be the best it can be. You want readers to buy it, love it, and recommend it to their friends.
Sometimes this means getting help, not from beta readers or critique partners, but from a professional editor.
The very idea of working with an editor can be scary. Who are these sinister types, and what do they do? How much will it cost, and how long will it take? Most important, will it make your book better?
Fiction Editing: A Writer's Roadmap answers those questions. It's for writers seeking agents and for those who are publishing themselves. It's for those who want to avoid scams and ripoffs and those who want to know how working with an editor can help them become a better writer.
In fifteen easy-to-read chapters you'll discover
