EP. 77 | Diversifying Your Writing Income: Mary K.’s Path to Developmental Editing

Today’s episode is a little different… because our very own Mary K. Tiller is stepping out from behind the hosting mic and into the guest chair!  That’s right — the woman you know as co-host and co-founder of Writing Off Social is here to spill the beans on her brand-new venture: Tiller Editing.

We’re talking about how she’s building an editing business from the ground up (without social media), what she’s learned along the way, and how you can take your next steps, whether that’s hiring her as your editor or launching a business of your own. Listen in!

Tune in to Hear:

  • How a single cohort coaching call sparked Mary K.’s journey into professional editing, and why she almost said no
  • Why so many authors skip the most important editing step, and how it can make or break your book
  • The four levels of editing are explained: from big-picture structure to final typos, and which one your manuscript needs first
  • How Mary K. is building a thriving editing business without any social media presence
