ENG 384 Publishing

This course will use a web-based literary publication as a framework for a basic introduction to various editorial jobs (copy editor, assistant editor, managing editor) and compare production requirements for both print and online publications.  Students will study links, headline writing, tag writing, and web optimalization, as well as writing for precise lengths under firm deadlines.  They will edit submissions and work with authors.  Includes one-hour "lab" for hands-on production work.
