I’ve had the pleasure of chatting with Shell Vera, a voice discovery coach, writing coach, ghostwriter, and developmental editor at The Essential Creative. Here’s our frank discussion on
— Industry challenges
— What it takes to be a publishing or language professional
— My ideal clients (can I say, “Tag, you’re it?”) and one of my target markets
— The importance of questioning everything and preserving the freedom of speech and expression in the age of PC culture
— The self-publishing process (writing, editing, designing, and book marketing)
— The distinct levels of editing
— Why it’s not a great idea to go to outsourcing platform websites such as Fiverr and Upwork
— What to look for in an editor (or any professional, for that matter) and hiring the right team members for your project
Thank you so much for taking time to chat with me! This is so informative and helpful.
