In this week’s episode, Stephanie chats with Book Coach and Editor, Sue Toth.

You’ll get insight into what it looks like to work with a book coach and an editor.

For Sue Toth, who holds both titles in her business, there’s a distinct difference between the two and they’re important to consider as you think about your needs as a writer.

Did you know there are different approaches an editor can take when working with your manuscript?

If not, you’ll get a quick overview this week.

If you’re tempted to use one of the many tools available to writers online, like Grammarly or ProWritingAid, to edit your work, you’ll want to listen to what Sue has to say about the importance of connecting with another human being about your writing.

Sue is not just an editor. She also works with writers as their book coach.

She connects with writers at different stages of their writing journey and adjusts her approach based on individual needs.

It’s very common for writers to find Sue when they’re feeling unmotivated and stuck.

The other big thing that I find with authors is sometimes they'll come to me when their motivation is lagging for whatever reason. They're not happy with the book. They don't like the way it's going. They feel like, Oh, I thought it would be such a great idea to write a book. And now I don't have time. So a lot of Things that I will work with with my clients to our motivational things, um, you know, find a different place to go and write or a different time of day or schedule it into your calendar.

You know, the way you would schedule a doctor's appointment or something like that schedule time for writing into your day. It's, it's not going to get done unless you make it an appointment and you make it as important as every other appointment in your day.

Sue is dedicated to helping authors get to their writing goal.

You’ll walk away from this episode with practical tips and insights into what to consider if you’re at the stage of hiring a book coach or an editor.
