New Editors Group!– first meeting Wednesday, October 5th

Perhaps to be renamed Editors Anonymous, this new Editors Group will meet periodically to troubleshoot challenges and obstacles editors face in their jobs. A good editor brings out the best in a writer — whether it’s by asking the right questions, eliminating redundancies, or helping build a strong narrative that resonates with readers. Join a new group of talented editors looking to build on these and other valuable editorial skills. Here, members will critique each other’s work (gently and constructively, of course), share tips on writing good headlines and compelling ledes, discuss diplomatic ways to manage “strong-willed” reporters, and more.
