The Guild is thrilled to have Amy J. Schneider, author of the new Chicago Guide to Copyediting Fiction, present the keynote address at Red Pencil 2023. Amy is a well-known and well-loved member of the editing community who has always generously shared her expertise and wit; her presentations, whether in-person or remote, are a highlight of any conference. She presented sessions at Red Pencil in 2017 and 2019, and we eagerly anticipate learning about her new book, how she came to write it, and the career path that led her to this achievement.
