WHO WE ARE:
Our dedicated team of publishing professionals is committed to helping authors realize their very best work and to finding innovative new ways of bringing stories and ideas to audiences worldwide. Find your story in our books! In editorial, when a book proposal is received, the editor decides whether or not to pursue it for acquisition. An editor works with the author to turn the manuscript into a finished book.
They negotiate contracts, edit the books for content, structure and on a line-by-line basis, and collaborate with internal departments on how to package, market, and publicize the book. Editors need to know what’s trending, what can sell to which target market, and what fits with their particular imprint. Some responsibilities may include:
- Evaluating submissions and writing reader’s reports
- Assisting with copy writing, and researching comp titles
- Attend virtual editorial meetings, provide insights based on your own reading and in response to editors' submissions.
