DON\u2019T LOOK FOR MANUSCRIPTS, LOOK FOR POTENTIAL LOCAL AUTHORS:\u00a0The editor\u2019s role in manuscript acquisition and development<\/strong><\/p>\n

Why do many publishers and editors devote their time and energy on publishing translations instead of looking for original manuscripts? Perhaps because original manuscripts are hard to find. What if, instead of looking for manuscripts, editors focus on looking for potential local authors \u2013 men and women with a story to tell, a compelling message, a burning desire to communicate the gospel with authenticity, and a calling to write for God\u2019s kingdom and glory? In this webinar, we will learn together how and where to find potential authors. We\u2019ll also share best practices in nurturing new writers as we closely work with them in developing their original manuscripts. The webinar is hosted by Yna Reyes and moderated by Hannah Rasmussen.<\/p>\n
