Antisemitism in Fiction and Fantasy

The stories we grew up with, both in classic literature and in our fantasy and fairy tales, are often built on unexamined antisemitic foundations. Whether you’re a writer or an editor, learn about the prevalence of antisemitic tropes in fiction and fantasy to keep your work from unintentionally doing harm.

Presented for: ACES, the Editorial Freelancers Association, Editors Canada, the Editors Tea Club, and more.

How to self-edit like an Editor presentation

Self-Editing for Writers

Editing our own work is intimidating and difficult—but it isn’t impossible! Learn how to best prepare your manuscript before working with an editor by using editorial tools for self-revision. We’ll discuss the tools I use when working with clients, as well as the tools I use when revising my own writing!

Presented to the University of King’s College MFA program.
