Hey.
I’ve heard that authors don’t like to read through peoples manuscripts, just in case a story they read is similar to one they’re writing or going to write. (For obvious reasons). So are editors/copy-editors able to be authors themselves?
Hopefully that made sense .
Edit: I don't think anyone understood my post. I meant, can editors be authors as well, because they read through so many manuscripts and might end up with a story similar to someone else's that they have looked at, and end up getting sued.
Which is why i mentioned the fact that authors don't like to read through peoples manuscripts. When i put (For obvious reasons) I assumed people would know what i was talking about .
