What an editor has learned in 30 years of work

Joanna Penn's conversation with veteran editor Tiffany Yates Martin might seem overwhelming and intimidating.

So here's a comment Martin made near the end: after thirty years of editing, she herself is still learning.

And Penn, as she's said before, is still growing as a writer.

Among the many topics they discuss in this episode of The Creative Penn: how to serve as writer, reader, and editor; how to create distance from your manuscript on a deadline; how to find your author voice; and how to edit on a budget.

You can listen to them talk or read the transcript on Penn's website.
