“Know your audience” applies to editors, too. As an editor, your job doesn’t start with an open Word document; it starts with client communication—how well you can identify who they are, what they need, and how you can help. In Working with Aspiring Authors, you’ll learn tangible ways to do that, including:

  • How to ask the right questions
  • Utilize sample edits
  • Adapt your services for limited budgets
  • Navigate tough client conversations

By the end of this course, you’ll be better equipped to develop both books and the authors who write them. By learning about working with aspiring authors, you will develop ways to focus on what an author needs as well as gain confidence in assisting them make their book the best it can be.

    Working With Aspiring Authors is my favorite PEN course so far. Tim’s teaching and interactive critique of my assignments went above and beyond my expectations. Afterward, I felt refreshed and inspired to apply the new ideas I learned. I highly recommend this course!
