Debi Alper is an author with 5 novels published in the Nirvana series, a freelance editor, creative writing tutor and fearless slayer of Doubt Demons. She runs Jericho Writers’ Self-Edit Your Novel course, which has 6 bursaries available in 2024 for underrepresented writers. She is also interested in mudlarking, singing with my choir, micro gardening, working class peeps and radical Jewish voices. And she says she's owned by her cat.
In this episode Debi takes us through the layers of editing, psychic distance, her own journey as a writer and editor and so much more.
