Congrats on the new gig, Allena! And welcome to my blog. I hope you make it a habit.

Lillie, isn't it weird how we writers often experience the same things in the same time span? I wonder if clients are ruled by the moon... ;))

Interesting that you should post about this today. Last week I had a question in comments about how an editor works with a writer to get a book ready for publication. I wrote two blog posts in response – the first on how to choose the right editor. There will always be those cases where things don’t work out as expected, but the odds are better the relationship will succeed if the writer (or other client) and editor have a good understanding of what the writer expects and what the editor does.

HI Lori, I found your blog from your posting at freelancewrite.about.com. I’m the new guide over there. So far I haven’t had to deal with any issues with editors in any of my positions, or with writers, since I do some editing too…But, this post has some great info! Thanks!
