Editing is subjective. Hire ten editors, get ten different editorial visions.
In this event, we’ll bring two faculty agents’ edits for each piece–and YOU get to decide who edited it best.
Agents compete for bragging rights.
In this apples-to-apples comparison, you’ll see in real time when the “subjectivity” of the industry meets personal taste, publishing education & editorial chops.
Come for the power flip (surely part of you would like to be the one judging agents for the day?), stay for the editorial lessons.
We're happy you're here.

About the Instructor
Jessica Sinsheimer
Jessica Sinsheimer has been reading and campaigning for her favorite queries since 2004. Now an agent at the Context Literary Agency, she is always on the lookout for new writers, and–whatever the age group–she tends to love contrast: highbrow sentences and lowbrow content, beautiful settings and ugly motives–the books that are beautiful and scary, heartbreaking and hilarious. She loves secrets, scheming, revenge, plotting–and stories that have to be written forward and backward to make sense (SHE LOVES discovering a very cleverly planted clue that makes sense in retrospect). She’d love more of what she thinks of as “Rom Com 2.0” works–powerful, nerdy women with humor and heart. More underrepresented characters, please–especially those with power, agency, and happy endings.
