QOTD: On the Editor's Craft "An editor’s only permanent alliance is with the audience, the readership. It is the editor’s responsibility to hook that readership; to edify it, entertain it, stroke it, shake it up… Authors know their subject. Editors specialize in knowing the audience." ~ Arthur Plotnik from "The Elements of Editing" (p. 25)
