EFA KidLit Collective members are invited to join a special presentation by Madeleine Vasaly, independent editor and author of The Proofreader’s Guide to Comic Book Style.

Working with comics involves a lot of the same skills and knowledge as working with picture books and prose, but there are also mechanics and conventions that are unique to this medium. Madeleine Vasaly, will present “Copyediting and Proofreading Comics”—an overview of workflow, editorial style, and other important aspects of comics publishing that copyeditors and proofreaders should know.

Madeleine’s talk will take place on Zoom, on Thursday, February 27, at 7:30pm ET. We hope you can join us! Registration is required.
