This week, my special guest gives tips for both editors and authors alike. Be sure to have a pen and paper, or an electronic document handy, because you’ll want to take copious notes during this informative conversation.
Penni Askew is a professional book editor specializing in genre fiction who has been editing since 2015 when she began a two-year internship at a small publishing company. She opened her own business in 2017.

Penni’s approach to editing is to bring your best book to your readers. She sees herself as a combination of coach, teammate, and cheerleader who preserves your voice while polishing your story.

She is active in her local editing community and continues her professional development through webinars, classes, and conferences.
