Julie Perry

Julie Perry – Editor

I have edited hundreds of books over a decade at Skyhorse Publishing. I take a thorough approach and pride myself on attention to detail.

Overview

Over the course of ten-plus years in trade publishing, I've worked on a wide range of mostly nonfiction categories including sports, business, cooking, true crime, health & fitness, lifestyle, self-help, history, and politics. I've edited multiple NYT bestselling titles.

I like to provide detailed feedback on my projects and strive to make sure my notes are balanced (full of praise as well as constructive criticism). Since I've worked with first-time authors as well as more seasoned ones, I tailor my responses according to an author's familiarity with the publishing process and industry.
