Do Writers Need Editors? A TLC and Spread the Word Panel, with Dr Susan Greenberg and Guests

Join academic and editorial expert Susan Greenberg, who will be launching her publication, Editors Talk about Editing: Insights for Readers, Writers and Publishers. The book collects interviews with writers, publishers and editorial practitioners at the top of their game across newspaper publications, magazines, book publishing, broadcast news, academic publishing and digital curation. Each interview encourages responses that explore related aspects of creativity and human judgment, and reflect upon how editing skills and culture can be shared, and why it remains central in the rapidly changing digital age. Susan joins top literary agent Carole Blake, who is interviewed in the book, and author, screenwriter and playwright Courttia Newland in a vibrant and informative panel discussion about the editing process, asking the question: ‘do writers need editors?’.

This talk will be chaired by award-winning writer, journalist and broadcaster Anita Sethi.
