Summary: All writers have a favorite way of editing their work that fits in with their personality and temperament. Today we talk with one writer who is perfecting a fascinating new method: reading his work aloud, recording it, and asking the world for feedback. Micah Dubinko is a Senior Research Developer at Yahoo!, published nonfiction author, and geek. His book, Xforms Essentials, was published in hard copy by renowned tech publisher O'Reilly, and also online under an open content license, making it free for others to copy and modify. Micah is currently editing his first novel, written last National Novel Writing Month, aloud on the Web. In this fascinating interview, Micah discusses: * Why he decided to edit his novel aloud on the Web * How a typical editing session works * What he's learned from editing his work this way * How editing aloud can help a writer produce perfect work * How editing a novel differs from editing a nonfiction book * How listeners can offer feedback on his novel.
