Synopsis
As the editorial project manager for the production and scheduling of any publication, it’s the you who needs to ensure it’s published on time, on budget and to the quality that the company requires. You need to be able to plan for many contingencies, ‘wear many hats’ and, sometimes, just as you think you’re ready to ‘send the book to press’, you’ll need to juggle, juggle, juggle. This course will take you through the essential skills that an editorial project manager needs.

Synopsis
Good writing needs clear thinking. And, in the hands of a good structural editor, the writing can be shaped and formed so its best features shine and readers want to keep reading. But working with non-fiction can bring its own challenges and thrills. In this day’s workshop, we’ll expand the skills we have to dissect the ‘architecture’ of a piece and enhance its meaning and clarity. And we’ll look at how to develop good editing practices and a ‘kitbag’ of techniques so editors feel equipped to tackle any job, any size, any content (!)
