Your guide
Hi, I'm Laura Portwood-Stacer, developmental editor and consultant for academic authors. My business, Manuscript Works, has been around since 2015.
I've done developmental editing on over 50 scholarly book projects and consulted on proposals for hundreds more.
I also offer a professional training course for working and aspiring editors who want to learn developmental editing for academic clients.
With this webinar I hope to educate scholarly writers on how developmental editing can help them achieve their publication goals and provide the knowledge needed to access developmental editing services with confidence.
