I was the editor of the school newspaper and in drama club and choir, so I was not a popular girl in the traditional sense, but I think I was known for being relatively scathing.

Tina Fey I was the executive editor on a little magazine called Greek Accent, whose only claim to fame is that its art director went on to be the art director of Discover for many years. Jane Haddam I'm a writer first and an editor second... or maybe third or even fourth. Successful editing requires a very specific set of skills, and I don't claim to have all of them at my command. Lynn Abbey I've been a teacher at the college level, in composition mostly, and I've been an editor on magazines. Jane Haddam I've been using the same editor, thankfully, she's been sticking with me, but I've been doing it full-on guerilla style... I haven't gotten any public sponsor or anything, because I don't want to seem like I'm trying to sell any particular thing. Daryl Hannah If every editor turns you down, maybe you should take a second look at your text, however, just in case. Piers Anthony In 1972 I married again, to Elisabeth Case; she continues to be wife, companion, critic and editor: a partner in the projects and programs that we undertake. Douglass North It is also one of the pleasures of oral biography, in that the reader, rather than editor, is jury. George Plimpton It is unsound for an independent editor to be a financial contributor to any cause which would cause any type of special pleading. Walter Annenberg It took a brave editor in the U.S. to sign a contract for Dancing Girls, and without her belief in the book, I'm not sure it would ever have found its way into print. Louise Brown It's all about who's where on the food chain. When I'm the story editor, I expect my writers to follow my vision. When I'm working for another editor, I'm obliged to follow their vision. Len Wein Marxists are people whose insides are torn up day after day because they want to rule the world and no one will even publish their letter to the editor. Mark Helprin My only claim to fame, if I have one, is that I'm an editor. Woody Herman Never the less, at the age of fifteen, having never seen a writer, a poet, a publisher or a magazine editor, and having only the vaguest ideas of procedure, I began working on the profession I had chosen. Robert E. Howard Not too many people know who the editor is. Julius Schwartz Of, course it always cheers a news editor when a story has what we describe as 'legs' therefore it, erm, runs. Kamal Ahmed On the other track I got to talk with Jon Poll, my editor, and we go into more detail about the decisions we made in both the production and the post-production. So I hope the combination becomes something worth collecting. Jay Roach One guy records the voices, another guy times the storyboard, another guy times the sheets, one guy is the story editor. All these jobs should be covered by the director. John Kricfalusi One of my first jobs was at the Boston Globe. I worked in the sports department six months a year. When I was ready to graduate, the sports editor gave me a job as a schoolboy sports writer. Will McDonough Publishing your work is important. Even if you are giving a piece to some smaller publication for free, you will learn something about your writing. The editor will say something, friends will mention it. You will learn. Tim Cahill |
