Anita Mumm, Freelance Editor
Freelance editor Anita Mumm recently made the switch from working at a Denver-based literary agency to establishing her own editing and critique services firm. She also made the move from the big city to a small town in the mountains.
On the podcast, Anita gives a rundown on the services she offers through her well-named business, Mumm’s the Word.
She also talks about what she learned from sorting through hundreds (many 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. By the way, Anita will be one of three featured guests at the upcoming RMFW writing retreat in Colorado Springs (long since sold-out).
