Succeed as a Freelance Editor with Jennifer Lawler
Date: Wednesday, June 16, 2010 at 8:30-9:30 pm ET (Note that this is East Coast time; please check for the correct time in your time zone. Also note that this is PM, not AM!)
Topic: Succeed as a Freelance Editor with Jennifer Lawler. This teleclass will cover the various kinds of editing jobs that are available to freelancers, in print and online, including work as a developmental editor, a copy editor, and a managing/assigning editor for books, magazines and Web sites. Jennifer will briefly cover what each of these types of editing involves, how to develop your skills, and how to market yourself to clients. There will be time after the lecture to ask your questions about becoming a freelance editor.
About Jennifer: Jennifer will be teaching the e-course Freelance Editing 101 in July. Jennifer currently teaches copyediting classes for the University of California, San Diego. She spent five years freelancing as the editor of ATA World, the quarterly publication of the American Taekwondo Association, where she was responsible for all aspects of editorial, including conceiving the lineup, recruiting and working with freelancers, editing all copy, developing layout and design in conjunction with the art director, and working with the production team to ensure timely publication. She has worked as a freelance developmental editor and copyeditor for book, magazine, and online publishers, including Barnes and Noble, Inc. Custom Publishing, Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, Glencoe/McGraw-Hill, Collectors Press, and the Art Center College of Design, among others.
Jennifer is also the author of many books and magazine articles, including the award-winning Dojo Wisdom series.
