Writing Workshop: Ask the Editor with Britta Jensen
Join writer and editor Britta Jensen & co-editor Alex Herrera as they live-edit writers’ creative work and query letters, offering pointers about story flow, voice, point of view, and how to see their work from a target readership perspective. They’ll open up the floor to questions about craft, submissions and publishing your work, so don’t be shy asking about everything you need to know to feel confident about submitting your work or publishing it!
Please read these ground rules ahead of the conversation:
- Please keep your camera on for the discussion and provide your name.
- Mute if there is background noise.
- Respect the privacy of others by not reporting what you hear in this conversation with any specificity or attribution.
- Be respectful and listen when others are speaking.
