Presenters
Tanya Gold (they/them) is a book editor, French to English translator, educator and literary omnivore. They’ve been in publishing for over 20 years and have worked on all sorts of delicious books. These days, they mostly work on and devour SFF, horror, retellings, queer stories, interactive fiction and graphic novels. They also coach editors and writers, and teach in a bunch of places. It’s been suggested that they read too much for their own good. This might be true.
Genevieve Clovis, of Clovis Editorial, is a speculative fiction editor, author and writing coach. She specializes in substantive and stylistic editing for indie authors and publishers. Genevieve takes great joy in ensuring her clients’ novels are as monstrous and diabolical as intended. When not frolicking in the woods, Genevieve runs a variety of online writers groups and dabbles in the not-so-dark bookbinding arts.
