Asata Radcliffe (editor) & Margarita Barresi (author) will discuss the importance of the author-editor collaboration–the creative partnership that is the bridge to a published book. Reflecting on their journey together that led to the final outcome of Margarita's first book, A Delicate Marriage, this discussion will address the question: How can the author and editor center the voice in the work together? They will also discuss the importance of how having the right editor-author pairing is vital when addressing themes that have a larger cultural context. This session will have a Q&A, and audience participation is invited.
