What kind of education do book publishers / editors need to have?
Asked by DanniGirl
I am interested in becoming an editor or publisher for a book company but am not sure what kind of education you have to have first before you should even bother them. I can't seem to find it on the web. All I keep finding is "if you want to publish your book". I want to go to college and get the education but I'm not sure what you would need to go into that. Does anyone know?
