99: The power of editing - with Rebecca Millar

When four of our previous guests all paid tribute to the same person, we knew we had to speak to them on The Hobcast Book Show. Rebecca Millar has edited the work of a huge range of authors including Simon McLeave, Lucy Hooft, Morgan Greene and Cat Yaffe. Starting her career within both indie and traditional companies, a move to Australia forced Rebecca to become freelance. It was a challenging switch but allowed her to focus on her first love - crime fiction. In this revealing interview, Rebecca shares the range of skills and judgement she's developed to help both established authors and first-time writers to deliver their best work.

Also this week, Adrian and Rebecca breathe a sigh of relief that Amazon have finally published The Un Family by Linda Huber after two weeks of stress, and they reveal the identity of the special guest of the 100th episode of the podcast next week.
