Now, for a controversial reveal: I don’t use editors. I will say this is for financial reasons, and that is certainly true. But it’s not the only reason.
I don’t really want anyone else’s opinion on my work, whether developmental, line, or copy level. I mean, I want readers to like it, of course. But only if it’s mine, warts and all.
I realize that this approach is made possible by the fact that this is a hobby for me. If I were relying on my books for income, I might follow a more conventional path. But then again I might not.
I will admit that this has become increasingly difficult as my books have gotten longer.
