Editorial Arts Academy Courses

Targeted courses for aspiring editors of trade fiction and nonfiction.

We're freelance book editors who love what we do. We teach how you, too, can have a rewarding and flexible career as a professional reader.

Our courses only cover trade books — the kinds you'd buy at a bookstore or read for a book group (not academic, technical, or textbooks).

Classes cover:

  • How to determine which type of editing is right for you
  • Developmental editing: Story editing of fiction and literary nonfiction
  • Developmental editing and coaching of how-to/wellness/business books
  • Copyediting and proofreading: Learning the rules, and breaking them, too
  • Marketing - from social media to networking and more
  • Running your freelance business

If you're ready to explore a flexible, rewarding career as a freelance book editor, sign up!
