Are you an expert in an area of editorial freelancing with a desire to share your knowledge with other EFA members? The EFA Publications Committee is now accepting proposals for 2020 EFA Booklet titles. The submission period for booklet proposals is open now and runs through February 15 only!

Editorial Freelancers Association Booklets are ePub and print books of approximately 5,000 –7,500 words highlighting a topic of interest to editorial freelance professionals. The booklets are supposed to be brief and to the point.
