Freelance editor Anita Mumm is the guest. Anita recently made the switch from working at a Denver-based literary agency to establishing her own editing and critique services firm. Anita also made the switch from living in the big city to living in a small town in the Colorado mountains. On the podcast, Anita gives a rundown on the services she offers through her well-named business, Mumm’s the Word.
Anita also talks about what she learned from sorting through hundreds and thousands of query letters at the Nelson Literary Agency and she talks about the unusual thing she does with her spare time, a globe-trotting effort that helps her keep things in perspective.
If you’re thinking about hiring a professional editor in the near future, this chat might be helpful in understanding precisely what you need.
