Review: The Subversive Copy Editor: Advice from Chicago


The Subversive Copy Editor: Advice from Chicago
The Subversive Copy Editor: Advice from Chicago by Carol Fisher Saller

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



An excellent little book about copy editors and how to do a good job without getting all stressed (although with all the deadlines, that's bound to be happen too). I especially enjoyed the examples the author gives about authors, coworkers, and difficult manuscripts and how she navigated and solved different problems that arose in her relationships with them. I totally related with her, having encountered most of the scenarios she presented. It's a good reminder of how to find balance in a job where you're dealing with so many aspects to get the best book possible.
