This module, core to the MA Publishing programme, will introduce students to the practices and theories of editing, including copy-editing, proof-reading, and structural editing skills. It will look at different forms of writing styles used in Publishing contexts, from blurbs to reports, blogs to articles, and will give students support in presenting themselves confidently for job applications. This module will be delivered via a series of seminars, which will combine tutor-led (and sometimes guest-lecturer-led) content with workshopping, discussions, and practical individual work.
