Join international editor Nancy Doherty for an exclusive Masterclass in editing fiction and literary non-fiction. This unique opportunity is open to writers and editors seeking professional development of their editing skills. Nancy will provide practical advice on the elements of editing, including the structural editing and line-editing necessary to bring out the best in a piece of writing and ready it for publication. Participation in the Masterclass program is by application only. Class size is strictly limited to 12 participants. Applicants are asked to read a short story, line-edit it and submit a short 500-word assessment of it, along with a brief overview of what they would like to take from the class, including three important questions they would like Nancy to address during the session. Applications close Friday 27 April at 5pm sharp. Successful applicants will then be contacted and offered a place in the class.
