In this week’s AuthorU-Your Guide to Book Publishing, Dr. Judith Briles, host of the AuthorU-Your Guide to Book Publishing podcast, rolls out Part 2 of Editing Tips for 2024 with fiction editor Barb Wilson to step up and reveal her key strategies for 2024 success for authors.

• Start thinking World Building … world building is not exclusive to fantasy and sci-fi—it’s in every genre. Build yours and know the details. The result is rich story flow.
• Development and Content editing … is the hardest, longest, and most costly in the process.
• Copy editing is all about the mechanics, line by line.
• Proof reading/cold eye. It’s a must.
• Tips for looking at plot holes.
• Foreshadowing entices a storyline.
• Discover EFA.org – the Educational Freelancers Association for cost guidelines.
• And, of course, much more.
