Summary
This episode is really for the writer who has been burned before. You’ve worked with other editors, and you feel like you’re stumbling your way through the dark. You don’t know who you can trust, and you’re terrified of, at best, wasting your time and money, and at worst, being taken advantage of. And the worst part is that you don’t even know if you can trust the people you’re working with. Today’s episode will outline a clear litmus test for evaluating editors, red and green flags to watch for, and what to do if you’re paralyzed and don’t know where to go next. Let’s get into it. The Memoir Method; a cohort style eight-week writing intensive. You can find me on Instagram @the.memoir.coach , Substack , Facebook , and YouTube .
