I’m excited to be (virtually) heading to Stanford University to give a talk called Editing Scholarship for Your Colleagues and Yourself!
Editing your own work is one of the most challenging and important parts of academic publishing. Whether you’re swapping copyedits with your writing group, responding to revise and resubmits, or getting your manuscript ready to send to a professional editor, learning how to effective edit your own and your colleagues’ work ensures your scholarship can reach the communities you care about.
Topics covered include working with colleagues in writing and editing groups, figuring out where a manuscript is in the editing cycle and what kind of editing it needs, developmentally editing a manuscript to help the argument and analysis shine, copyediting a manuscript to clean up the writing, and putting academic editing to work for you in your career within or beyond the academy.
Want to bring a similar academic editing workshop to your university or organization? Drop me a line at Ideas on Fire.
