Welcome to the Los Angeles Area EFA Chapter page. EFA-LA is open to all EFA members in the Los Angeles area. If you fall a little outside the area—from the desert to the sea—consider yourself welcome too.
Our next chapter meeting will be on Thursday, May 23 at 2 pm PT via Zoom. Nadia Geagea Pupa of Píque Publishing, Inc. and podcast host of The Editor’s Half Hour, will explore the fundamentals of manuscript evaluations and how they differ from developmental editing and beta reading. Nadia will discuss how this service, also known as alpha reading, can be a valuable new income stream for your editorial business.
At our February chapter meeting, Suzy Bills gave a great presentation on how to determine prices for freelance editing services that are reasonable for the client and profitable for the editor.
Other chapter meetings planned for 2024:
For July, we are hoping to have a networking meeting with breakout groups. For October, we are planning a joint chapter meeting featuring a guest author. Further details will follow as plans are finalized.
Social for 2024
For 2024, we are looking to have a virtual general social with breakouts rather than individual socials for all the areas in Los Angeles and surrounding counties. Further information to come on all the details.
