Cover to Cover: What First-Time Authors Need to Know About Editing (REVISED)
[Librarians: Round out your writing reference section with this comprehensive book on editing, the missing step between writing and publishing.] You wrote a book. Now what?You're staring at the 200-page masterpiece you banged out on your laptop. Your "baby" that you have agonized over. Rethought. Revised. Reframed. And you are asking the questions every first-time author asks-usually in a mild panic:· Is this any good?· Is this manuscript long enough?· Who edits it? How much does that cost?· Where do I find the right editor?· Do I need an agent? Can I publish it myself? How?· Can I use AI? An editor protects you-from sloppy thinking, unclear structure, weak execution, and brutal reader reviews.

Veteran editor Sandra Wendel distills decades of real-world experience into this practical, no-nonsense guide that demystifies the editing process and provides tips on writing, production, and marketing because you need the big picture before you step into the world as a new book author.
This book shows you how to think like a publishing professional. Avoid costly mistakes. Build a book that blooms-from first draft to finished copy-cover to cover. BONUS: Checklist for Authors to Fine-Tune a Manuscript Before Editing Begins
