I've also heard about mediocre editors that waste a lot of author time, and bad editors that ruin the project.
- ghaff 3y agoMy developmental editor for my semi-technical book was “fine” but he didn’t do any of the structural re-factoring I did for my second edition. The company was using a new set of copy editors for the second edition and they were much better than the first. Overall I can’t really complain about the editing but I think the benefits were relatively modest.
