Since blazing my own trail into publishing,
I’ve dipped my toes into academic publishing, worked for multiple Big 5 publishing companies, worked on a variety of genres, and have loved every second of it.
I’m especially good at organization and scheduling which is how I found myself in Managing Editorial. I have a particular talent for annoying people into getting their work in on time and balancing lots of projects at once. Spreadsheets make me happy (especially if they’re color coded).
What I love about my career is that it immerses me in the publishing world, but it doesn’t drain me of my love for books. I try to read at least 50 books year (I am SO behind) and I am currently writing multiple WIPs.
