As a lover of indie horror, I thought it would be wonderful to share resources for authors, especially the indies, and to highlight the wonderful editors that help books be the best that they can be! There are many editors with affordable prices.<\/p>\n
So today I bring you ten editors who specialize in horror and speculative fiction, and may be open to other genres as well. I hope that you’ll consider hiring them for your next book!<\/p>\n
