The reason we have copyeditors and proofreaders
Stacy | April 15, 2008
This week I’ve been up to my ears in the duties that most people outside of the writing/publishing world think that an editor spends all her time at: proofreading and copyediting. The truth is that the copyeditor and proofreader are different people from the editor, and that I as the editor do a lot of what might be [...]
Where does that manuscript go?

Each track has faculty assigned, [...]
I wish I had a good April Fool’s joke for you
Stacy | April 1, 2008
But you’ll just have to settle for a straightforward entry from me today. Here’s something for the “did you know?” column.
