A growing number of talented book editors talk shop in 140 characters or less. So if you have a novel you want to shop around, check out this new list of The Best Book Editors on Twitter according to the Jason Boog at one of my personal faves Mediabistro.com. (Also check out Best Book Editor Twitter Feeds.)
"According to Tweepsearch, 25,080 people identify themselves as an "editor" on Twitter. Nevertheless, book editors have had a rough time in recent years--layoffs, uncertain roles, and crazy workloads. Today we've decided to celebrate and recognize the editors in our lives...We are building a new directory linking to the best book editors on Twitter. Add your favorite editor (or yourself) to the growing list," according to Jason Boog on GalleyCat.
