Great piece, Ed. It’s always good to share about the nuts and bolts of this odd business, and it sounds like you had and have a great experience with her. Her comment, “… but to figure out the places where the writer’s brain and the reader’s may not sync up, and to point out there needs to be a bridge there to get the point across…” resonated. I have an editor now (YAY!) and she caught just such an unclear passage. Looking forward to your book
