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.
